Alonso collaboration?

Just saw this posted. Perhaps in relation to his Indy 500 bid, or return to F1? New variation of headphones, maybe?

Finally, a new loudspeaker van! About time. Both cars and speakers have developed a lot since 1930’s.

If B&O works with an ex-F1 pilot, they will be dead to me.

 

Who the h*ck is Alonso?

Am I missing something?

The idea is good. My friend owns a successful men's clothing brand Orlebar Brown (which was sold to Chanel in 2018) and they did a collaboration with Daniel Ricciardo

He’s back on track in F1, with a contract with Renault for 2021 and 2022 and an option for 2023.

This gave Orlebar Brown a lot of press coverage. Only thing is, Daniel Ricciardo is a current F1 driver. Alonso retired from F1 years ago? Seems a very strange choice for a collab.

Ricciardo is always smiling and positive, Alonso is always grumpy and complaining.

Hence a bad marketing choice of B&O? Or are they taking their advertising campaign with unhappy people to the next level. 😁

We have to wait and see, there should be sufficient amount of fans out there who can be drawn into B&O and that is always a positive thing!
