The choice does still exist. Formula E still has grid girls, and hey, if people are outraged about this decision, they are free to try and start their own formula racing tournament.

If a strip club were to rebrand itself to a restaurant, would you say they were removing the choice of the strippers to work as strippers? I mean maybe, but you can't force a company/corporation/organisation to keep a position. Others are free to compete with alternative offerings if they want...

Grid girls that really want to continue working as grid girls can seek out other formula racing venues and work there. They do have a choice. As far as I know, this isn't the FIA (the actual ruling organisation), this is just F1.

Choices still exist, but there are less of them available. Unless Formula E is willing to put up more openings, this is a net loss.

The choice of being a telegraphist also disappeared when we started using telephones. Telegraphists were never banned though, they just became obsolete. But the choice still disappeared. Boohoo.

 

Do you propose that we force F1 to keep grid girls against their will?
