Kapow! Holy PR stunts, F1!
To mark this month’s release of Batman’s latest big-screen outing, The Dark Knight, Toyota F1 will adopt a new look at Silverstone this weekend. Both its TF108s will run with Dark Knight artwork will feature on the TF108s and the overalls of Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock, as well as the team’s motor home.
Also on show at Silverstone will be the iconic Batmobile and Bat-Pod vehicles; the Batmobile will even take to the Silverstone track on Thursday evening for a demonstration run alongside the TF108. We know which car our money would be on, and it’s not the one containing a psychologically damaged superhero.
This PR gig puts Grid Crasher in mind of Red Bull’s embarrassing Superman stunt at the 2006 Monaco Grand Prix:
Still, the cape seemed to work for David Coulthard (right in picture), who finished third.
We’re sure Toyota’s cars and drivers will look cooler - pics here as soon as we have them.
