Mercedes GP Petronas had an Australian GP to forget, with both Nico Rosberg and Michael Schumacher scoring DNFs. Both drivers were involved in collisions that affected their race, leading VP of Mercedes-Benz Motorsport Norbert Haug to call it the “toughest weekend of our 20 races”.
But that’s racing, and we hope to see the Petronas backed team bounce back in front of “home fans” at the Malaysian GP.
The national oil company has produced a series of teasers for its upcoming F1 ad, which is themed “Who says Formula 1 technology is only for Formula 1?”. The four teasers released so far shows the Mercedes MGP W02 appearing in daily life situations, which ties in with the tagline.
There’s one showing Harajuku girls using the F1 car and another where a European lady jogs past a parked Silver Arrow on the sidewalk. There’s even one featuring a Malaysian toll booth!

Why does the F1 car opt for the tunai lane instead of the Smart Tag? Under category of Kelas 1. Lol. I wonder which toll is this…..

:P
maybe that ad is about petronas’ new fuel :D
Yes, it is. Just look at the tagline at the end of those teasers.
The F1 car is lower then toll barrier….just through it laa……hahahaha
it still a car not a motorbike and have to pay the toll.
cannot.. later caught by security cam.. oh wait.. too fast, video just went blur.. -_-
In video 3 when the runner jogs past the F1 car, it looks like Bernie is getting out of it! :D
none of the videos show MGP W02.. Its last year car, MGP W01.
Look at the blade roll structure. MGP W02 use the conventional roll structure.
“Who says Formula 1 technology is only for Formula 1?”
Tony of Lotus Racing. LOL
Hai, F1 car Million Bucks Smart Tag cannot afford? LOL!
Fake hand coming out from the cockpit to pay the toll some more.
tiadaid, bukan tak mampu bro…. no windshield lah~ hahaha
Indeed i was paying the toll during the making of the ad. The best part was there was an accident at the highway at the same moment. An SUV from KL terbabas masuk opposite lane. Guess the driver was sleeping
No wonder la my cousin was saying he saw F1 car on AKLEH about a month or so back…
they should have filmed it stuck during traffic jam at 50 cent toll Bandar Tun Razak this morning!
