I recon it looks superb...a real F1 sponsorship logo..
Well with reactions like that maybe Canon will stick around for more than one race. Heres hoping anyway. Always good to sponsors returning, especially in these troubled times.

Oh Ok, if you want to get all nostalgic about a corporate logo then knock yourselves out.

What is great about Cannon being on the side of the car, is that they are helping to pay for a team in the sport you watch. I don't know if there is anything fantastic about it, but those are your words, not ours.

The product that Cannon makes are cameras and lenses, which just so happen to be the preferred camera and lens to photograph Formula 1 with. The white look of the high end lenses goes well with the white look of the Brawn cars.

Why you think it's a bad thing I have nooo idea. Seems like a great partnership.

Never said it was a bad thing, actually I said it was good. I hope it does turn into a great partnership for Brawn and not a one race deal as it is currently.

And someone did say it was "fantastic", not my words but I'm sure you could find the quote on the previous page if you looked hard enough.

I think its a good thing that a big company like Cannon are interested in the smaller Formula 1 teams like Brawn

How is Brawn GP a 'small team'? I don't think it ever was nor will it ever be.

It was fully backed by Honda to begin with, and it never completed season all by itself without any resources from Honda. And now it will have Mercedes money almost right away.

I don't see anything 'small' in that.

They don't even have a single small driver. The only small teams right now are probably FIF1 and the useless STR + a bunch of F1 teams without cars.

Puke yellow .. what a great color to go with the lime green. Brawn have now officially surpassed Renault in the ugly stick dept.

Interesting looking wings where you would expect the roll hoop camera mounts to be. That looks new.

There is a TNT (a Brazillian energy drink) above Virgin's logo on the Rear Wing Endplate.
