Organisers of the Russian Grand Prix are considering ignoring Formula 1's 'grid girls' ban.

Already this year, Monaco and Austria sidestepped Liberty Media's controversial 'grid girls' ban by using attractive women for other roles.

"We are holding discussions with international organisers."

The Sochi round takes place in September.
