Britain's Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton was the target of racist insults over the weekend while undergoing tests with his McLaren-Mercedes team at Montmelo near Barcelona, the Spanish press reported on Sunday.
Catalan daily El Periodico reported it was a group of Fernando Alonso supporters who were making the chants, but some quarters reported that Michael Richards, the ex-Seinfeld actor was the one behind the upheaval.
"Fifty years ago we'd have you upside down with a f--king fork up your arse." Richards was heard to utter.
"He paced across the stage taunting Hamilton each time he left the pit" claimed a Spanish onlooker. "So we heckled back: "That was uncalled for, you f--king cracker-ass motherf--ker."
Richards retorted: "Cracker-ass? You calling me cracker-ass, puta?"
Richards was escorted from the circuit without further incident.
