Video: Are tobacco companies making a Formula 1 comeback?
Tobacco companies are starting to appear on Formula 1 cars again - but in a very different way to the past
Phillip Morris International's Mission Winnow project has a major presence on the Ferraris, while former British American Racing owner BAT is back on the grid with branding for its A Better Tomorrow initiative on the 2019 McLaren.
Outright advertising of tobacco products has been banned in F1 for more than a decade now, but could there be ways for more of these companies to come back to the grid in the future?
Autosport's Grand Prix Editor Edd Straw and F1 Reporter Scott Mitchell join Glenn Freeman to examine the implications of the recent deals.
