Ferrari and Acer

For some time there has been speculation as to what will happen with the former Prost Grand Prix backer Acer, which has been keen to maintain a presence in Formula 1. The Taiwanese PC maker has operations in over 100 countries and is using F1 to promote the country's global image and vision.

The firm has now announced that it will be the "Official Supplier" of notebooks, PCs, servers and monitors of Scuderia Marlboro Ferrari. The deal comes from the Middle Eastern branch of Acer.
