..and then what will that do for us here in the US? You see Schumi at 7:30am Sunday and you feel the urge to pop a cold one from the fridge??? I like the idea! We could also fire up the BBQ and have the first steak with that egg! | ||

Philip Morris can just change the name on the car to Miller Beer or some other company they own. | ||

They're gonna have to find someone soon to take over for Marlboro. Not too many companies can blow away near billion dollar sponsorship contracts. There current contract was something like $750million beginning a year or so ago and going until 2006 or 7 when they weed out cigarette ads for good. Ferrari (and McLaren) have seemingly limited choices for new sponsors. I think Marlboro was perfect though, owning a Ferrari is addictive and if one was smart he would stop, but you only live once so what the hell. | ||

How about Butoni Pasta. That would make sense given the past relationship of Jean Luigi Butoni and Ferrari. The possibility of Bud and Ferrari together was on www.grandprix.com last week sometime. | ||

If only it were true. I just think the thought of the tifosi and the Little E fans wearing the same clothing is funny.... | ||

Doubtful, since Phillip Morris owns Miller brewing. I can't imagine Phillip Morris staying with Ferrari if they were placing a competitor's logo on the car | ||

At the very least, it would stand to be far less offensive.... Maybe inverse to white on red? --Dan | ||

That would be sweet, it's classier being sponsored by Marlboro but I guess that is a fleeting arrangement with our modern idiocy. I mean seriously, if an F1 car being sponsored by a tobacco company prompts you to begin smoking then I can only think you would have died some other way soon enough. The only thing better than owning a tobacco company would be owning a beer company. | ||
