Grid girls' will no longer be used by Formula 1 from the start of the 2018 World Championship season.
Sean Bratches, managing director of commercial operations, said the change would be made "so as to be more in tune with our vision for this great sport".
The new F1 season begins on 25 March.
"While the practice of employing grid girls has been a staple of Formula 1 grands prix for decades, we feel this custom does not resonate with our brand values and clearly is at odds with modern day societal norms," Bratches added.

another reason to stop watching F1,cos the racing is boring now

They also stopped the walk-on girls at this month's PDC Darts Masters. Kinda lost something IMHO

I bet the ladies will be disappointed too.
