A few GP ago ITV made a big hooha about it being the last ever with cigarette advertising.

What does it say on the rear wing of the Ferraris at the moment at the Brazilian GP?

Yes, I do, you aren't going mad old boy.

But I also seem to remember it was a suggestion rather than rule.
I also remember them saying that it was up to the teams discretion whether adhered to.
But then again, I might be nuts too.
