We had the same add in the States, but the narrator was American and the kid asking for the autograph and Nelson Piquet were omitted from the add. l wonder why?

Never saw that ad here in UK. . thank god its corny as hell! Piquet looks constipated and Alonso looks stoned!!! When will marketing types realise there is very little you can do with F1 drivers in an advert unless they're IN a car???

That is the exact one we see here in Asia. It makes me want to buy insurance.

Not in Australia. You see, l used to dislike Alonso up until 2007. That year he spent at McLaren showed what a ruthlessly and selfishly determined driver he was. Qualities l like in an F1 driver. Orange was not a colour l liked. l am warming to it now. The ad is good. Makes me want to buy insurance too.

Yes, it was on at every single GP on German TV, usually in the pre-race build-up and the post-race analysis rather than during the race.
That ''full'' version was only shown in the second half of the season, it was the shorter ''Alonso-only'' version in the first half.
As cheesy as any other F1 ad l can remember.

Saw that here in Asia too.. l was also so taken with the ad that l bought the insurance on the proviso that Patrese WAS constipated and Alonso WAS stoned, so you were right Red...
...the clincher for me though, was the look of unadulterated wonderment on the kid is face after seeing Mad Max walking around the pits in lederhosen!

Oh God yes. Talk about overkill. l watched F1 in 5 different countries last season, and that ad was everywhere.

l only saw that add in the uk in small sections. the clip was cut and edited and only about 15 seconds of it was shown in the uj. but it wasnt frequent, l only saw it once or twice.

Yeah. the exact one. It was a bit cheesy, the bit with the kid getting Alonso is autograph. Maybe there is a difference to suit the market
