Best answer:
If you hit it with a barcode scanner you’ll get a price on your Marlboros in countries where tobacco advertising is forbidden.

Marlboro is still a title sponsor of Scuderia Ferrari. However, due to the advertising ban on tobacco, Ferrari could not put Marlboro on their cars anymore. Which is why they have that odd-looking bar code on thier rear-wing.

Yeah basically its Marlboro sponsoring Ferrari which they have been doing for about twenty years, but doing it sneakily by using their livery instead of their name since F1 outlawed tobacco sponsorship a couple of years back. I think next year though Santander is going to be Ferrari’s title sponsor, so maybe there won;t be any more barcodes on their cars
