@@storrho The grid line up used to look amazing in the 80's & 90's before the sponsorship ban, not only did the cars look better but there were far fewer cases of these dodgy deals going down. The notion that a race car sponsoring a brand of tobacco is the reason a kid decides to buy a packet of cigarettes is rubbish. I started when I went to college because a lot of my peers were, when I left college and not in a constantly in a social bubble where it was the norm I quit. Majority don't start due to sponsorship of a race team of football strip, it is because parents and society and government keep telling them not to and it's an act of rebellion driven by curiosity, and where one starts their inner circle follow like sheep especially if the cool kids are doing it. If you put signs everywhere saying sale prohibition to under 16s the more a 13 year old hangs around the shops to see if they can get a passing adult to get them a packet.

[@storrho]

@@AJ-tj7jm Numbers of people smoking have been constantly decreasing since advertisement and places where you can do it have decreased, and people have been educated more. It doesn't cause people to smoke, but it does normalize it. Why would you be I'm favor of the advertising of a product that only poses a health risk and nothing else? Seems to me there are no cons.

Tobacco advertising is outlawed in many countries because it literally encourages people to pick up habits that cause addiction and subsequent deterioration of health, causing big companies to make a profit out of people's addiction and their health. Alcohol on the other hand is not biologically addictive, and also way less harmful, so it's still allowed in most places. Both should be banned if you ask me.
