Podiums with Ferrari or a WDC in a Durex?
If a wonder car called the Durex came to being, and was so advanced that nothing can beat it, would a top driver want to drive the Durex? or rather drive to podiums in a Ferrari, Williams or McLaren, cars with history and glamour?

Alan Jones was happy to drive a Durex in 1976:

If it was for the F1 WDC then drivers would drive a car called "My Mother Wears Skis In The Phone Booth!" if it was the fastest and would make them champion.

sponsored by durex is different.

Ok, I guess I must look at car racing from a different perspective to most. No problem, takes all sorts to make a world.

The question is who's rubber would last longer: durex or Pirelli?

Well, if Red Bull gives you wings, I'm sure that coming up with a catch phrase shouldn't be too difficult for them.

Also, Ferrari being sponsored by Durex wouldn't do its relationship with the Catholic church, any good at all.

Would it be any worse than standing on the podium with West/Marlboro/Johnnie Walker/PDVSA across your chest?

Agreed, get a WC and you create a little bit of history and glamour.

It would also be a good name for a team. After all you need rubber that is consistent and lasts a long time.

Lasts a long time? Are you sure that's entirely necessary?
