Some know tennis megastar Maria Sharapova for her aggressive style of play and somewhat exaggerated grunting, while others also see her as one of the most formidable women tennis players in history. Either way, she is an exceptional, athlete and her association with Porsche->ke1 as a brand ambassador is not surprising at all. Regardless, you might agree that her speech in this Porsche commercial lacks enthusiasm, and takes some of the gravity from the "outperform yourself" message.
Sharapova is ruminating about how her only opponent is actually herself, during which she is either driving a blue Porsche 911 Turbo S or training on the beach. While in the beginning of the ad we see her completely focused, whether she is driving into the night or stretching before a run, the end shows her smiling for the first time, just as the sun comes up. The commercial is not exactly bad per se, but other than the beautiful shots of the 911 Turbo S (enough by itself, says I), I wasn't too impressed.
As some of you know, Maria Sharapova signed a three-year deal with Porsche to be its brand ambassador back in 2013, and this is not the first time that she has been linked with a global campaign for the sports car->ke506 maker. Hopefully, for her next one she will show a bit more fervor with her acting.
