How sad that the darts and now the F1 are saying "walk on" no walk off! Next they will be banning boards held high aloft in the ring .. and replacing by some annoyingly cheesy voice over that tries to be funny but sadly 99% of the time are not.....
how many of the top players are actually not classified as obese/ very obese!
if the girls were naked then yes, ask them to walk off and get some clothes off!

I used to be a fanatical watcher of F1 until it got boring .. and the presentation / and commentary got predictably boring
to actually to see the odd female amongst the male dominated pit lane/grid was a breath of fresh air
 
Why not keep them but rather than being half naked get them to wear racing overalls like the drivers wear.
 
One of the women was on the telly - she said all it does is take away a job for them
 
Seems ludicrous to me. I'm all for equality and PC'ness where necessary, but when you go too far it's just going to frustrate opposers rather than get them onside.

Usual liberal thinking bullshit

Sorry but this is just another example of people who think they are superior to the rest of us telling others what they should be doing or thinking rather than let people decide for themselves.

The F1/Darts/Speedway/Moto GP/Horseracing girls add a bit of glamour to events in my humble opinion. And I'm sure they are capable enough of deciding whether they like their jobs or not, and if they don't are able to find something else by means of employment.

Everyone is jumping on the latest bandwagon re sexual harrassement etc and I'm not downplaying the fact that it existed, but what really annoys me is that older film stars like Jane Fonda and co are now saying 'oh yes we were aware of it' in relation to Harvey Weinstein.

So why the hell didn't she open her mouth AT THE TIME when it would have mattered the most ? It's not as though she will be in danger of losing a blossoming career or not getting future roles.

It's people like her that have made the whole situation even worse. She wants ****ing shooting for her collusion in this sort of thing.

Let people decide what they want to do.

Couldn't agree with you more!!
Now taken down very famous artwork in Manchester art gallery because of it's provocative nature!! Be covering up on beaches next, makes you wonder where half of this stupidity comes from. I fear we are going down a certain road along with the latest fashion within our society.
 
the casting couch, a superb leather covered over sized one armed backless piece of furniture, prominent in all directors offices.....!
 
whatever you do these days, there's some half-wit Lefty trying to ram their opinion down your Throat - hate'em!
 
Have to disagree here guys , I watch most fi races , personally find the "grid girls" or whatever they are called , distasteful and very 20th century , just think the world has moved on , appreciate just my view though .
 
I know it is out of date and we are now in 2018 but I love the old films of drivers running to their cars which are lined up on the side of the grid at an angle and off they go, I love looking at a nice female but give me the spectacle of a good old fashioned racing car start anyday.

The trouble with all this is, myself for example would want my daughter and wife to be treated equally in society, paid equally for doing the same job etc etc. most normal people would think the same about race, creed and colour, gender and sexual orientation, none of it is a second thought for me, but all this liberal ****e just pushes everybody further away and getting more frustrated by it all. I am sick and tired of listening to all the liberal media bullshit on a daily basis. they are getting attention way above the general consensus of opinion. They damage their cause more and more on a delay basis, whilst my opinion hardens against them when that wasn't the position I started in.

These extreme feminists have taken away some womens rights to chose their jobs and make their own decisions, its hypocrisy in the extreme and well paid middle class women moaning about how they are a few grand short of their £300k male counterparts seems pretty petty when compared to working class women on council estates around the country struggling to feed their kids, these are the real 'strong women' the other idiots don't have a clue!

Agreed banksy. And sorry if this is controversial, but it's the same women saying being a grid girl objectifies women, etc that would also say the burkha is a symbol of a female being able to choose to wear what they want. It just doesn't make sense to me, the far-left stance has so much hypocrisy in it I find it baffling (as of course does the far-right).

The old 'Le Mans' start! It got banned after a driver protest but it definitely looked cool.

Couldn't agree more Rob.

And I don't feel you should ever have to apologise for telling the truth (even if its just as you see it!) that is a another classic example of how we are becoming brain washed by the media on a daily basis! How many times do you hear "I'm sorry I don't want to appear un-PC" on a daily basis..
