Former grid girl turned stunt driver: 'Banning Grid Girls is a total overreaction'

Just a few days after the Professional Darts Corporation banned its Walk-on Girls, Formula 1 has followed suit by banning the use of promo models, commonly called Grid Girls. But the decision has prompted outrage amongst many of the women and critics have blasted it as 'ridiculous' and 'prudish'.

Former Grid Girl who now works as a stunt driver Michelle Westby is furious these girls are having the job they love taken away from them and says the racing world is far from sexist.
