But the most alluring, according to recent reports, could be Ferrari . For his part, Vettel is widely regarded as the personal favorite of one Bernie Ecclestone, who could be helping to broker a deal that would see the young German wearing red in the near future

Ferrari is no stranger to turbo charging, in fact they’ve been playing with turbos since 1984 when they first appeared on the mid-engine Ferrari 288 GTO. Their next turbo adventure came in the form of the 1987 Ferrari F40 which utilized a twin turbo set-up on a 2.9 L V8. Then in 1995 Ferrari not only dropped the V8 engine for their new hyper car the F50, but they ditched the turbos as well and instead opted for a naturally aspirated V12.

Under pressure from anti-tobacco groups, Ferrari’s F1 team has removed the controversial barcode image from their cars engine cover in time for today’s Spanish Grand Prix. EU regulations prohibit the use of tobacco product logos in sports advertising, so Ferrari had been using a barcode logo, similar to that found on the bottom of a Marlboro box, on their F1 cars and team uniforms. Critics complained that it was still strong subliminal advertising that would entice fans to use tobacco products.
