I am sure that the BMW workforce had appreciated this actions. It shows that Nick care about what the workforce is doing and it is also a good support to them.

I couldn't find any either. However, Heidfeld, as shown in the image, did drive the car across one of the BMW factory floors. That is odd though. I know that Toyota Motorsport is actually separate to Toyota, and Mercedes engines were built by Ilmor before Daimler-Chrysler brought them out. It is possible that BMW Sauber are owned by a separate company to BMW (for financial reasons or whatever), and thus they cannot promote one through the other.

I am a BMW motorsports fan, so I went to www.bmw.com and there is nothing about this on the website, not even a "BMW in the news" link at all! There is not even a link from the homepage to BMW Motorsports, much less the F1 site. I had to go to the sitemap to find buried within there the motorsports website, which then took me to the F1 website. about 10 minutes and dozens of clicks, just to find out about their F1 news. So there, you would think there were pics like above, or maybe some video of this? Nothing. Just 3 "avant garde" photos of Nick that could have been from anywhere, loaded up with Adobe Flash, taking 20 seconds per pic to load up. Why do all this PR if you aren't even going to let the fans share it or even find it?????? Here is something interesting.
