African-American Nascar driver Bubba
Wallace has sent out a tweet condemning words of "hate from the
president of the United States".
Wallace is the sole full-time
black driver in the US racing organisation and was instrumental in it
banning the Confederate flag from races.
A noose was later found in his garage but an FBI inquiry determined "no federal crime was committed".
President Trump called the story a hoax and suggested Wallace should apologise.
Wallace
has been a vocal supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement, which
has come to the fore since the death in police custody of African
American George Floyd in Minneapolis in May.
