Fosters leaving F1?

The Australian beer brand Fosters is reported to be planning to wind down its motor sport activities, saying that the sport no longer fits with the firm's marketing strategies. Fosters has long been a race sponsor, notably at the Australian and British Grands Prix but it has also enjoyed the "pouring rights" at F1 circuits around the world. It remains to be seen whether these will be axed.
