And now for my first 'proper' post...

( threads and posts in Community, aren't considered proper posts, are they? :confused: )

In my local press there was rumour linking the South African jewellers, De Beers, to Ferrari as their main sponsor.

They replace Vodafone, who have recently defected to McLaren.

I found this link

Ferraris? Diamonds? They go together well. Kinda like Little E and Bud.

The De Beers diamond consortium runs the biggest scam in the world. Why does an association with Ferrari seem appropriate?

Didn't De Beers very publically try to distance themselves from this when the rumor first leaked weeks ago?

I saw the thread title on the main page and thought the very same thing. A match made from hell.
