Corporate Trophies .

[Bagwan]

Does this get up anyone else's nose ?

I am hating the trend towards corporate trophies being a simple depiction of the sponsor logo , like the last one with the ENI scary animal , or the one before with the big Santander S .

I love the look of a simple cup .
It can be cool if it looks like one of the buildings at the track .
Some reference to F1 like a Black Jack steering wheel is great .


But , a big S sucks big s .

We see the friggin' logo on pretty much every surface in the frame , so don't worry we'll miss you .
Just get the heck off the trophy !

I couldn't agree more.

If I had just won an F1 race I'd be offended to recieve an advertisment. The crappy tin karting trophies I have are better.

[steveaki13]

I have to agree.

This throphy is a wide one these days and it sucks.



Where as this. Proper historic throphy which is individual, not mass produced crap.

If he could get them to make them in the shape of him, he would be completley happy.

I have a solution......Write a Check with a lot of Zeros at the end and make it out to the FOM and then I am sure you can make any trophy you want!

That's just a ridiculous idea. Even a life-size representation would be virtually invisible on the mantlepiece.

And, of course, everything done by private enterprise is fine, worthy and not a suitable subject for criticism even if it's utterly tasteless and devoid of merit.

Perhaps a Bernie trophy could be like one of those singing fish which were popular 10 years ago, except with Bernie it would only sing when it suited him.

Are you agreeing with me that Bernie is a plick?
