On 1st Nov 2009, Abu Dhabi will host a Formula 1 Grand Prix race. Etihad Airways, based in Abu Dhabi and apparently main sponsor of the F1 event, therefore has put a A340 and a320 in a special Formula 1 colour scheme:

Superb colours, especially the A340. And how nice to have thought of two different colour schemes for the same event!
