That's 1 GP out of 21 and it's still under investigation, Mission logos haven't been banned yet in Australia. I think PM is happy with how their campaign is doing since the first reveal.
PMI is actually really investing heavily in research outside of the tobacco industry and pursuing health care related innovation (using the tobacco plant).
The mission winnow is part of that.
I've been in touch with one of their heads in Switzerland and they want to transition away from the tobacco industry as they believe it will become less and less profitable in the coming years.
So.. Yes, marketing, yes capitalism, but in the end, no, its not bullshit.

Lots of rake (lol) and more black than last year. I like it.
These presentations are useless. Lot of components are just place holders and they will be different in the tests.
That was to be expected, but you can still see that this is a damn good livery. Best so far for me.
A couple of videos from Craig Scarborough videos explaining some of the 2019 regulations:
2019 Front Wing.
2019 Rear Wing.
Also a technical analysis of the 2019 Toro Rosso. (Also from Craig Scarborough).

There are very worring rumors for Williams. According to some reports they are struggling to complete the car and they could miss first day of testing.
McLaren at 33/1 is really tempting here given that the Alonso-effect made that car appear a lot better than it was last season. 9th fastest overall. Just depends on what Williams can do with Kubica, I guess.
That's really not that rare and no reason for panic, all the teams leave things as close as possible for the first test. Unless they miss testing time it's only an inconvenience.
Rich has David Sullivan and David Gold involved in an unknown capacity.
Eh, to me it's more similar to the old respective liveries than the 2019 Renault is.
Ugh, F1 TV Pro is supposed to go live here on the 18th and no sign on pricing yet (access is €26,99 annually).
Thats the archive price. The live TV package is closer to 150-200 euros.
EDIT: Beautiful livery by Mercedes. That is a testing livery by Red Bull. Expect them to go back to their normal powder matte livery come Melbourne
Not sure where you're located, but I'm assuming the Pro package will be priced similarly in The Netherlands, to Germany and Belgium, which are both €64,99... anything above €100 is a hard nope.
That Red Bull, shame it's a just the launch livery, just like last year.
I like the mailbox on the nose of the RB15. For all the Max Verstappen hatemail, or complaints about the Honda engine.
Newey after all of these years still hasn't learned from his experience with the MP4-18.
