If I heard correctly during the practice streaming, Ferrari will be losing their sponsorship deal with the pedlars of cancer sticks and F1 will be finally be free of tobacco sponsorship - at long last. Will this mean Ferrari will now return to their traditional scarlet instead of the nasty Marlboro red they have had for the past few years?

You may be right, I just can't remember hearing that they had changed to the more traditional red and I hadn't noticed a significant change in the colour of the cars recently ... I wonder if that means I'm colour blind?

i rekn when Vodafone left they went to their original colour in 07, but since then they have added a sparkle through it

easy way is to look at Schumi's helmet, thats almost an orangy colour which was the same as the Ferrari paint when he drove, so when he test drove an F2007 you can easily see the difference.

Good picture. I like both colours - I'm just happy to see the bar codes will be going!
