    It's an Infinity. Haven't you seen those commercials where they are asking "Vettel" for directions through a Spanish town.

    And the Button / Tony Stewart Mobil 1 commercial makes me cringe...

    There's a thought.... However, isn't he still persona non grata? [I thought he got a lifetime ban?]

    Obviously, "lifetime" in F1 terms is debatable, particularly if the Russian money men want him I guess.... Aren't Peter & Bernie pretty close?

    Cheers,
    Ian

    This could be said for many current sponsors.

    I am for market forces making this determination. If customer protests were loud enough or numerous enough the teams would refuse tobacco money because the consumer demands that they refuse tobacco money.

    What's next . . . when F-1 comes to New Jersey, we will see soft drinks banned from sponsorship because they contain Fructose?

    This is political correctness, which is wrong.

    Putin, like Lola, gets whatever Putin wants.

    And yes that's where Broadley got the name.

    Don't confuse my hypothetical with wishful thinking. :)

    Personally, I'd prefer Miami -- at least street races have been done in Miami.

    I'm still waiting for Peter Windsor and his USF1 team, so what do I know? :)

    That sort of persistent optimism in the face of reality is usually found in certain P&R threads.

    I have it from good authority that Sauber was actually born in Italy :p

    It ain't over till the fat lady sings:

    According to German "Welt" (a serious newspaper) the Russians haven't come up with the $ yet.

    Unfortunately, it seems that this is true (the same story today communicated also in the swiss media).
