Ferrari drops Mission Winnow logos from F1 cars for Canada and France

Ferrari will remove the Mission Winnow logos from its Formula 1 cars at upcoming races in Canada and France due to tighter advertising laws.

The Mission Winnow initiative, which has links to tobacco producer Philip Morris International, was dropped from Ferrari’s cars and team name at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, but the logos have since returned.

Ferrari will replace the Mission Winnow branding with its 90th anniversary logos at the Canadian and French Grands Prix, both of which take place next month.

“Scuderia Ferrari will once again be celebrating the 90th anniversary of its foundation, over the weekends of the Canadian and French Grands Prix," a team statement read.

“Therefore, as was already the case in Australia, the SF90s in Montreal and Le Castellet will carry the logo celebrating the anniversary, as will the drivers and mechanics overalls. Mission Winnow remains the title partner for Scuderia Ferrari in 2019."
