Rumours were that the team's cars will be covered in the 555-branding, the sister company of main sponsor Lucky Strike. The British American Tobacco cigarettes are very popular in the far east. Latest rumour is that Anthony Davidson's car will be in the full blue and yellow scheme with the 555 logo on the engine cover. But the only change on Jenson Button and Takuma Sato's cars will be the blue 555 replacing the red Lucky Strike logo. Ironically, tobacco advertising is not allowed in Shanghai, but despite Chinese laws, authorities have allowed the teams to race with their sponsors' full livery.
