Here is the list of the official sponsors of the Formula 1 team Scuderia Mission Winnow Ferrari for the 2021 FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
Base – Maranello, Italy
Mission Winnow – Mission Winnow was first unveiled as a sponsor on Ferrari’s car ahead of the 2018 Japanese Grand Prix. It is an initiative backed by Philip Morris International (PMI), the tobacco manufacturing company behind the famous cigarette brand Marlboro – also a long-time backer of Scuderia Ferrari – that is an attempt by PMI to research and manufacture new, smoke-free, and less harmful alternatives to cigarettes.
Marlboro was a huge part of Scuderia Ferrari’s sponsorship portfolio in the noughties, but that eventually dwindled as rules regarding tobacco sponsorships in Formula 1 tightened around the world. For that very reason, the Mission Winnow sponsorship has come under a lot of criticism and legal disputes, with PMI often being accused of subliminal advertising and trying to circumvent the tobacco sponsorship regulations for a continued branding presence.
Mission Winnow’s branding featured sporadically across Scuderia Ferrari’s assets throughout the 2019 F1 season but was put away for the entirety of 2020. It was reported in January 2021, however, that it will feature once again this season in select races, depending on the regulations of different countries regarding tobacco sponsorships.
Shell – Ferrari’s partnership with the Anglo-Dutch oil and gas company goes all the way back to 1929.
