I'm looking to find out this font (not the logo, the text to the right, specifically "Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix Melbourne 14-15-16-17 March 2013") or anything that's remotely close. TW Cen MT is close but not quite thick enough when bolded and in italics. Anyone got any ideas?

Futura bold italic

Try using Segoe UI in using Bold Italic, with a Faux Bold at 30 Tracking. It appears to be pretty close.

I think this font comes standard with windows 8 not sure. I think i provided a good link for more information about the font as well.

The Font is Futura Std Bold Oblique. This will work perfect for you
