Pierre Gasly has added yet another voice to concerns about Formula 1's 'grid girls' ban.
France's Auto Hebdo jokingly asked the Toro Rosso driver if there is a connection between the 2018 ban and the fact that Gasly is making his full-time F1 debut this year.
"It's not my fault!" he said.
"Personally, I find it a shame because grid girls were part of the DNA and the glamorous side of Formula 1."
The new season gets underway with the Australian Grand Prix on March 25.
