    Sir Jackie Stewart in new advertisment

    I saw this new ad in the coverage of the Australian F1 GP today and think it should win an award. It is a very interesting, and I think powerful way to advertise alcohol with a "safety message" in it.

    Having a soundtrack with a great cover of a David Bowie song as well as featuring Jackie Stewart helps a bit as well

    Yes, very effective ad. He was also on stage for the award ceremony sporting his distinctive plaid hat and slacks. As soon as the champaign corks started to pop the "wee Scot" could be seen scurrying off stage. Looks to be a more interesting F1 season by the way. Ferrari appears to be more competitive with Mercedes.

    This is a longer version of an older, similar commercial. I love the extended version much more. At COTA during the US GP last season, they played this commercial pretty much on loop between sessions. After hearing that song for about 3,153 times, it started to get on my nerves. If they had this longer one, I think it would have helped filling time and not running too many times.
