In what might be the promotional coup of the year, Ford Brasil have not only managed to put fierce rivals Nigel Mansell and Nelson Piquet in a room together, they’ve given them another crack at each other on track as well.
Promoting the new Ford Fusion, they appear here in the first two of four videos. They’re beautifully shot and feature plenty of nice touches that should whet your appetite (well done to those who picked up Mansell slapping the #6 sign). The first videos don’t show any on-track action, but leaked photos from the shoot show a disgruntled Nige and two very poorly looking Fusions.
We’ll be posting the next two videos as well, so check back soon.
