Formula Louis VuittonPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, September 27, 2004 1:56 PM
 The Ferrari team's Rubens Barrichello won the first-ever Formula One race in China yesterday. The track and his car were covered in advertising for Marlboro, Sinopec, Shell, Vodafone, Olympus and many other companies. Louis Vuitton timed the opening of their new Shanghai store (pictured here in its opening day livery) to coincide with the race. Xinhua has a large gallery of images of the Formula One race here and an article about Louis Vuitton (from whence the image here was taken) here. |
