I'm disappointed you thought I could think it is fine to say something racist.

I didn't say you thought it could be used. I agree that whilst it may not have been meant in a racist way (because tyres aren't people!), all I said it was that still doesn't make it appropriate whether he meant to use it that way or not.
I'm not the kind of person who'll write in with a complaint but I wouldn't be surprised if that did get one. Mistakes happen in broadcasting and are usually apologised for. That one was a bit beyond a mistake and was so shocking it just got glossed over during the broadcast.
