Hamilton: "Punishing someone who talks about mental health is not cool"

Lewis Hamilton has expressed his support for Naomi Osaka. The 23-year-old tennis star gave up her participation in the Roland Garros tennis tournament after she refused to talk to the press, something the organization was not happy about.
