Hi, I'm Carter!
I am a Senior at Rock Canyon High School and when I'm not working on homework, debating, or playing tennis, I am an avid fan of Formula One and motorsports in general. Formula One in particular has become my Sunday tradition as I watch the race (while pretending to do homework) before anything else.
Some of the activities I'm involved in are: RCTV, debate, NHS, and Tennis. I have a strong interest in International Relations as a major in college and a future career path. I plan on going to college and studying abroad during my time there
I decided to research this transition in tobacco sponsorship after noticing it myself. I remember seeing the first instances of tobacco branding at the 2018 Japanese Grand Prix, and then noticed the vaping brands start appearing on cars soon after. This transition was barely addressed by any media and this gap seemed to coincide with F1's rise in popularity in the US.
