Are you gonna tell us what they are?

Well has sarah tried getting sponsorship from Guiness (have I spelt that right?) they are Irish and don't have involvement in motorsport activity yet good oportunity to help sarah out.

Has she tried the 3 big fast food places? Mcdonalds, KFC and Burger King? I know these may be silly sugestions but these comppanys may well benefit by helping sarah get her F1 test drive.

Not being funny but if Guiness wanted to be in F1 surely they would have sponsored Jordan as for the big three fast food companys how would they benefit?

McDonalds has recently issued a profits warning and so I hardly think they will want to be a major sponsor!

I heard that McDonalds were interested in sponsoring Ferrari a while back, but didn't want their name on the side of the same car as cigarettes. A lot of money comes into F1 from Tobacco, but that's also what keeps a lot of money away.

Guiness did sponsor a car in F1 some years ago. As to fast food benefits,I guess the same as any other product that appeals to young people! McDonald's are in NASCAR I think.

Guinness sponsorized RAM March team during 1981.

Guinness would be a great sponsor! The problem is that I would have to be big and important enough to them so that they would change an antiquated policy they introduced after Derek Daly and with the launch of Kaliber.

Lots of Guinness people would like to do something but central policy still stands.

I have to say that it's the same for a lot of the big brands you mention, they don't want to finance your development, they want to buy space on a success. Not a success next year - a succcess now.

Best regards,

how well are Guinness doing?

Mr Jinxx · 7 Jul 2002, 21:00 (Ref:328986)

as a company, I mean

Well seeing as Ireland were in the world cup I'd say quite well even my nan had one when they played Spain

EvilPumpkin · 8 Jul 2002, 10:01 (Ref:329209)

Hmmm did anyone see the article on Sarah in News of the World yesterday?

So much for not using her gender to break into F1.

BennyBoy1978 · 8 Jul 2002, 10:44 (Ref:329248)

No sorry - why what did it say then?

EvilPumpkin · 8 Jul 2002, 11:10 (Ref:329271)

I don't have it physically with me at the moment, but the general gist of it was that the only reason she couldn't get a drive was because she was a woman and that the F1 people were all sexist SOBs

I'll try to get the full text this evening for it.

Rob29 · 8 Jul 2002, 14:12 (Ref:329416)

Nothing new there then.For a horrible moment I thought they had found some awful 'scandal' about Sarah. Is that an Irish edition of NOTW?

Russfeld · 8 Jul 2002, 14:23 (Ref:329426)

sexism is a crock. If anything being female helps you. Sarah would be just another driver trying to break into F1 if she didnt have boobs. Its like here in the states. Fast or slow, a woman gets more coverage and its gotten to the point where the industry goes out of their way to show they dont have a problem with it.

EvilPumpkin · 8 Jul 2002, 14:28 (Ref:329434)

um don't know rob - we don't normally get it - another marshal brought it over when he came over to watch the British GP yesterday. I don't think it's different but I can't say for certain.

BennyBoy1978 · 8 Jul 2002, 14:49 (Ref:329455)

NOTW is normally the same scandel, half naked women, man caught with his pants down its so predictable
