Glass Car

Brand Advertising Strategy

Johnnie Walker sponsors the Vodafone Mercedes McLaren Formula 1 team. To make this sponsorship accessible to our drinkers, we created branded content, parties and promotions inspired by the glamour of the circuit.

Sponsorship Marketing Strategy

This sponsorship was coupled with a rebooted 'Join the Pact' campaign - a commitment to never drink and drive. Our powerful Glass Car film, alongside F1 drivers Mika Häkkinen and Sergio Perez launched the campaign with a promise of one million kilometres of safe rides home from the brand.

The centerpiece of the film is a full-scale reconstruction of the 2013 McLaren MP4-28 Formula One car made from Johnnie Walker whisky tumblers. In the film the car dramatically shatters, serving as a powerful reminder of the fragility of human life.
