Thanks again to Matt to pointing me to these, it seems AMD is going full on to promote its Phenom cpu, even tho its yet to be released. The Phenom Logo (?) has appered on the helmets of the Farrari drivers at this weekend's US GP.

Looks like someone rushed in at the last minute and made them put the stickers on their helmets....

They don't fit in at all...

Ferrari are sponsored by Malbro, however only at certain races, at other ones they just have that bar code effect.

If the latest rumours are true, we still have at least 6 months to wait, so I wouldn't get excited yet. (it seems phenom as been pushed to Q1 2008).

Man holding phone in hand: Sir, AMD is on the phone. They want to know if we have ANY advertising space left on our car for this weekend's race.
Head guy: Tell them we have a 3" by 1" spot on our driver's helmet. That's all we got.
Man holding phone in hand: They want to know if it will be visible on TV.
Head guy: Does it matter? Nobody ends up buying the crap advertised on these cars anyway.
