    Default New Shell V-Power Commercial "Circuit"

    Reportedly the most expensive commercial ever made. Historic F1 ferrari's driving through some of the worlds greatest cities. This get my vote as the coolest commercial ever... Turn up your speakers.

    I like the attention to detail: the driver of the 60's F1 is wearing a helmet in the colors worn by Chris Amon.

    A nice touch.

    A thing of beauty. I especially love the guardrail "bump" from the Clay Regazzoni 312B.


    Just beautiful.

    Way cool. I'm thinking there's a new ringtone in there somewhere.

    Default Name the Locations, Cars, and Drivers...

    Thanks for posting! That clip is awesome!

    How about a contest to name the locations, cars, and drivers? I will admit that I'm a big Ferrari nut, but I'm sure I could not pin down all of the details without some help (Goggle!)...

    Default 1985 Ferrari 156/85

    If you want to see this thing racing in the flesh, get along to Eastern Creek (Sydney Australia) on the 15-16 September.

    I havnt been able to see a high res version of the add, but I suspect it is this car used in the Australian location.

    If you want to get up close and personal with one, come to the practice day on the 14th. The usually mix up all the open wheelers, and this Ferrari is the most ausome sounding thing that can go past you.

    Agree, the company's vintage cars are truly works of art and sound spectacular. Here in the States have attended Ferrari vintage racing and the sights and sounds are well worth the entry fee plus the drivers and their crew are great people.
    Enjoy the Track,
