Also RedBull will no longer be branded Infiniti. Their Twitter says its just Redbull Racing (though I think Tag might be involved somewhere in the name later).

McLaren have got Chandon as a biggish sponsor too.
Aston Martin said no to F1.
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

I think it would be nice if Mclaren changed the grey to white and just leave the rocket red

If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Not sure why they'd even consider F1, sports cars have always been their niche.

If they will brand their engines to Alfa Romeo, I think they will use more red in the color-scheme.

Which I have always thought would make sense for one of their cars anyway - it is a *red* bull (or *rosso* toro) after all.

Well, if we're splitting hairs, then a. Fiat-Chrysler shareholders got one Ferrari share for every 10 FC share they own b. it's the same agnelli holding company, exor, that has the biggest slice of both pies. Their interests are still undoubtedly linked.
