Yeah, I remember reading they filmed a couple years there in the mid-80s. Ironically it was in the era where the nickname for the series was International Marijuana Smugglers Association, given Randy Lanier, John Paul Sr and the Whittingtons all drove and then got pinched in that era.

I was kinda wondering why the series name was never mentioned and why they didn't go for the low hanging fruit of a drug smuggling plot but with that context it makes sense why they wanted to distance themselves from the show about vice cops lol

Ferrari has a new title sponsor

quote:

Ferrari will have a title sponsor for the first time since 2021 at next week’s Miami Grand Prix.

The team announced it has signed a deal with technology brand Hewlett-Packard which will see it officially compete under the title Scuderia Ferrari HP.
Ferrari previously announced it will use a special heritage livery incorporating shades of blue. In the sixties Ferrari’s cars briefly competed using a blue and white colour scheme which happen to closely match HP’s corporate colours.

The team issued renderings showing how HP’s branding will be incorporated on its cars and drivers’ overalls. It will also appear on the car raced by its junior driver Maya Weug in the F1 Academy series which will form part of the Miami Grand Prix support bill.

Under the deal Ferrari will use HP technology including PCs and other devices, conferencing appliances and printers.

coincidentally, Ferrari have said they're going to run a blue "throwback" look at Miami which might incorporate NART vibes but also is very curiously timed to this new title sponsorship announcement!

quote:

Ferrari will mark the 70th anniversary of its arrival in America with a special livery at the Miami Grand Prix.

The team will incorporate two heritage shades of blue on its cars, which have run in red, white and yellow so far this season.
The two shades are a lighter blue, Azzurro La Plata, preferred by Alberto Ascari for his overalls when he became Ferrari’s first world champion in the fifties. It was also used by later champions John Surtees and Niki Lauda, the latter doing so when he joined the team in 1974.

A deeper blue, Azzurro Dino, will also appear on the SF-24s. This was worn by Arturo Merzario and Clay Regazzoni, before the team’s drivers switched to predominantly red overalls.

Ferrari confirmed the part-blue livery “will be used only for the Miami race” and not F1’s two other American rounds later this year in Texas and Las Vegas.

Well Miami Vice wasn't exactly the bastion of good acting.

In the 80's it was all about guest stars and not the content.

We've come full circle...just like the 2024 Miami Grand Prix.

The acting can be good but the series as a whole is pretty uneven in tone, it's sort of a roll of the dice if Johnson is gonna phone it in or bring his A game for any given episode.

The problem is that you can't really compare it to modern standards because what exactly are you comparing it to? It blows modern network television police procedurals completely out of the water but it can't hold a candle to prestige TV.

For me it's good enjoyable dumb 80s entertainment to throw on to wind down for the night

Enzo entered his cars under the name NART for a couple races in 1964 (and they were thusly painted blue and white) because he threw his toys out the pram over the FIA rejecting homolgation for a Ferrari sports car.

Though those are the colors Surtees clinched his title in.

The marketing angle from Ferrari is “70 years of business importing in the United States,” but also conveniently looking like Tottenham Hotspur HP’s corporate colors is fun too.

Also Marlboro were definitely title sponsor before. So this makes their first title sponsorship from a bad product :v:
