Default Piquet and Mansell duel on track again! - In a Ford ;)

Ford has came up with the idea to have both former F1 WDCs for the Brazilian TV Ad for the Ford Fusion.
Both were given one car to drive around the Velopark race track in Brazil.

Video release is planned for release on Tuesday, January 15th.

Brilliant move by Ford.

Look n learn fellas, that car will set the styling cues for the 2014 Falconio...That Syd Motorshow teaser showed the top half of the nose which looks similar to those pics above.

looks like they were having a good go at it...
I guess neither wanted to be the slower driver??

Cheers,

Great Marketing...
I personally think that Ford AU should go with the Fusion name over Mondeo. Has more marketing appeal. Goes back to the old all Ford names started with an F.
