If this isn’t a stroke of marketing genius we don’t know what is. The world’s biggest porn site is now a major sponsor of team MV Agusta Racing UK and its rider Joe Francis for the 2018 British Supersport series.
The unusual choice of sponsor marks what is probably the first time a porn site has ever penetrated the motorsport scene, bringing with it an unprecedented level of opportunity for sexual innuendo.
Those pondering what pornography and racing have in common needn’t come to a head. It’s obvious that both the sport of motorcycle racing and lovemaking requires talent between the legs. Endurance? Check. A bit of noise. Check. Dangerous to those not wearing the right protective gear? Definite check. You get the idea.

Given that Francis’s efforts in the series in the past only took him to seventh place in 2016, he’ll be looking to take the competition from behind this year as he hunts for a decent season climax. And if he doesn’t come first, at least we’ll know everyone had a good laugh.

Was wondering what all the fuss was about. To be honest I actually had to Google to find out that Tsingtao was a beer https://t.co/kf5XPdJj3T
