The Meriva's background is AC Milan soccer team t-shirt, and this the name for an Opel car in Italy. I found their site and It looks they are using lower case of the same font, I don't know the name but I hope it helps.

** Alonso #1 !!

The typeface show in the site is a custom
design produced by Robin Nicholas
in Monotype UK!

This project is explaned in one article, here:

Probably, the "Meriva" is a Narrow version of these (narrower version of the typeface, for use particularly in large sizes, in advertising and display work)

> Alonso #1 !!

But Webber being #2 for so long didn't hurt... :-)
Kimi all the way, baby.

> Kimi all the way, baby.

This year Kimi or Montoya, I believe Kimi in spite of this: http://elmundodeporte.elmundo.es/elmundodeporte/debate/2003/08/896/prevotaciones896.html , Montoya will do something wrong, you�ll see.

But the next year I�ll bet you something ...

This year Kimi (because he's made of ice), next year Kimi (because Ralf is not a well-behaved "second driver", but maybe he can learn from the master of bending over: Barichello...), the following year Alonso (because Montoya will then be Kimi's team-mate, and they'll take points from each other). You heard it here first. And I think type conferences should be coordinated with F1 races. And chocolate festivals.
