I dont think I know who 90% of the sponsors are in F1
I might know the name, but I've no interest in knowing what they supply.
If it went back to cigarette and alcohol sponsorship (I don't smoke), I don't think it would persuade me to smoke John players or Marlborough or drink martinis.
Who uses Gulf oil?
I suppose it makes the brand recognisable, but again in my opinion you would be a bit of a simpleton if it swayed you towards the brand.
I like certain brands also, nothing wrong with brand loyalty, but I wouldn't change because a sporting team I like were sponsored by another brand.
Its about brand awareness not necessarily a specific product and as mentioned messes with our heads in all sorts of ways we may not realise.
