Batman to sponsor Toyota team at Silverstone

The Toyota Formula 1 team will have a special partner at the upcoming British Grand Prix. The team will be backed by Warner Bros. movie 'The Dark Knight' which is the latest batman movie that will be released at the end of this month in cinemas.

The much-anticipated film, which releases in cinemas across the UK on 25 July, is the follow up to the 2005 action hit Batman Begins. The Dark Knight reunites director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, who again portrays the dual role of Bruce Wayne/Batman.

To mark the release of The Dark Knight, Panasonic Toyota Racing will see its livery slightly change. The Dark Knight artwork will feature on the TF108s and the overalls of Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock, as well as the team's motor home.

The Batmobile will even take to the Silverstone track on Thursday evening for a demonstration run alongside the TF108.
