Ferrari sign major deal with ex Spyker sponsor Etihad Airways
Etihad logos to appear on back of rear wing, turning vanes and drivers helmets.....first time in MANY years that a sponsor other than Marlboro (full branding or subliminal branding) has appeared on as large a space on the Ferrari as the rear wing.
With Mudadala already on board, Etihad Airways and the new F1 and Ferrari themeparks in Abu Dhabi coming soon, seems Ferrari's commercial future is firmly focused on the Middle East:

I'm going to wait until I see the car before passing judgement but I don't like the idea of more sponsors on the car. The Ferrari livery is the cleanest on the grid. More logos will not help the visual appeal of the car, particularly if they are placed in areas that are currently free of logos such as the bargeboards (or turning vanes if you prefer).
Forza Ferrari!!

But then again, my retired-teacher father once told the parents of a boy with Dyslexia that it wasn't a real 'illness', just an excuse for middle-class parents with unintelligent children.
Ah, the good old days of traditional schooling.
