Must have been the least prominent advertising, Terminator Salvation on the Brawn GP cars.

Instead of squinting trying to see what was on the wing on the 3rd lap.

I managed to see it in the garage from the coverage on tv. I love these random F1 advertising hookups. What have we had in the past? Superman, Diamonds on cars...

DC's cape for Superman made a lasting impression, in more ways than one. Team principal Christian Horner borrowed it later when jumping in to the Red Bull motorhome pool in the nude. :eek:

Kimi's diamond steering wheel was some McLaren celebration also at Monaco. Only for Kimi to not finish the race, march down to his boat to join his party and leave the steering wheel in the car.

You're also forgetting the Batmobile and Batbike at last year's GP. The bike was outside the Toyota motorhome and the Batmobile was on track at Silverstone and pitstopped on the Thurs night by the Toyota pitcrew. :not_worthy:

Ah ok, the diamond reference I was on about was the one with Jaguar, I think, the hookup with the diamon people (who's name escapes me). Something about a diamond on the nosecone of a car, which was then lost in a crash (though I think that part was all to generate publicity and it wasn't on the nose at all , which certainly sounds sensible to me)
