Ferrari - still Philip Morris/Marlboro, Mercedes - Petronas is the title sponsor, Red Bull - TAG Heuer, Williams - Martini.
Renault seems to have gone through the WEC-like "brand colors & identity" way and currently lacks a big sponsor.

I believe Porsche will only supply engines - a revenue generator for the company with some Porsche logos on the cars. With the limits on testing in F1 - too big of a risk for Porsche to be a back marker on an international stage while they try to develop their car.

With current regulations and yearly price of the engines for customers, this is absolutely impossible. 2021 engines will be cheaper but 2-3 customer teams probably won't ever cover the development costs.
