    Any models I see of the 2007 F1 Ferrari have no Marlboro logos whatsoever. Not even the piano keys or just white.

    What's up with that?

    Take a look at my thread “NEW version of the F2007 Schumacher used in Barcelona!
    I have placed the bar-codes on that F2007 model.
    As for the Marlboro livery, it was only used one time at the China GP.

    I thought they used the Marlboro livery also in Bahrain and Monaco.

    Anyhow, I don't understand why they don't show at least the piano keys. Must be some other crazy anti tobacco campaign. No I don't smoke, but this is nuts.

    i have heard the rules are even stronger when the item in question is considered a "toy" which in the eyes of the govenment is aimed at kids.
    Doesnt matter if probably 80% of the buyers are probably adults; no markings whatsoever...

    Don't you love it when the govt thinks it needs to protect us?

    Luckily there is ebay. Just found the real Marlboro decals for the car. Now I can do a realistic Bahrain GP version (lighter red and no canard wings, but Marlboro livery).
