Mexican F1 Driver Sergio Perez Just Told A Sponsor To GTFO After Trump Joke
Sunglasses manufacturer Hawkers has apologised after it Tweeted out a joke made at the expense of Mexicans
Force India driver Sergio Perez wasn’t terribly pleased with sunglasses manufacturer Hawkers this week, after its Mexican Twitter profile Tweeted out a Donald Trump-related joke.
The Tweet - which is shown below but has since been deleted from the account - suggested that Mexicans should buy the company’s sunglasses to hide their tears once President Elect Trump takes power and builds his infamous (and stupidly implausible) proposed border wall.
Naturally, that didn’t go down so well with Perez, who then publicly dropped Hawkers as a sponsor. Ouch.
The company has since issued numerous apologies from the account, although Perez does not seem to have commented further on the matter.

That’s the problem with todays people. Why does he get so offended, it was a joke!
