Seems like their planning something big.
I pieced together the newspaper sections and it seems to reference '50 JAHRE BMW M', the 50th Anniversary of BMW M GmbH, with the headline "BMW M birthday preparations in full swing."

2022 would be the 50th anniversary of BMW M (founded in 1972), which is in a little more than a year's time now that 2021 is approaching.




I wasn't able to find any other further easter eggs but it'll be interesting to see how BMW M celebrates its Golden Jubilee.

BMW M's 40th Anniversary ('40 Jahre BMW M') in 2012 was marked with some special events such as a Nürburgring driving event and some promotional media campaigns, but other than that nothing. No special models or supercar like some wishful thinkers might have hoped (in fact, the first turbocharged Ms were launched about a year earlier and natural aspiration would be dead the next year) , but 2012 did mark BMW's first DTM victory in 20 years since the E30 M3.
