I believe it's a cigarette company. Notice that the paint jobs are different in countries that prohibit tobacco sponsorship. This week in France, the Mclaren cars carry "Mika" & " David" in place of the West sponsorhip. Hope this helps.

I think it's the German road safety organisation. -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers> "Mick" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > In article <UKj%6.3768$[email hidden]>, > [email hidden] says... > > > > Further on the subject of sponsorship .... > > A couple of seasoms ago, DEKRA used to sponsor anything that moved. > > I know its german but what is DEKRA and/or what does it do/sell? > > -- > Mick

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! Nasty! Nasty nasty NASTY! First RAS turns into a heated debate on pills going to Africa, and now it's Greenwich Village at the drop of a hat! What is the world coming to?! I HATE to see a German come over here and say they're sucking on a fag. The LEAST you'd get is a really hard stare like you're crazy!

Just saw the images from France, and it seems they they are using a different name: "Bitten Heroes". I guess they changed it since they are using a shark motif on the nose instead of a bee. Now, does France prohibit beer advertising also? I noticed that the site of the Jags say "Best's" instead of "Beck's".

In article <9hl5nv$rg1$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] says... > I think it's the German road safety organisation. Aah .... I have been asking people this question for at least three years now. Perhaps this explains why Schumacher(M) was daubed with it a few years ago. Didn't he have to do so much public service after some road offense? It would explain alot. Thanks -- Mick
