Racy ad ban for Brazil grand prix


Raunchy adverts trying to drum up custom for brothels in Sao Paulo have been banned ahead of Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix.

Sao Paulo Mayor Jose Serra says he is determined to clean up the city and has ordered the ads to be covered up.

City workers have been taking down billboards with pictures of half-naked women and carrying the slogan "emotion on every curve".

Two establishments have also had their doors sealed with concrete blocks.
