I think RLM is a big enough deal that somebody would turn up to sponsor them in all likelihood. Even if it fell through one year, the team would surely go anyway, as they did for at least a decade (and a half? Two?) before they brought partners on board.
It does surprise me that the contract is apparently still rolling annually, despite the benefits it has brought to both parties. I assume that's come from Mobil 1 being prudent/cautious more than anything else.
