How do you know? Is it in the actual newspaper or just online? Could a local company look a it and think 'you know, the 3 grand package, I might have some of that.' Or even bigger.

Okay, these kinds of things rarely play out, but getting the message out to an audience wider than the usual BTC fan/reader/casual follower might just tip the balance by grabbing a medium/small company who'd love to be involved in F1, but are far from that budget. but might get him across the line, so I'd say getting the story out to a wider audience increases the chances, even if it's just by 1%. Much better than sitting on his hands, and it suggests he must have a reasonable part of the financial package already.

Sounds like he's 80% there and it's about putting his name out there to get the other 20% which I assume is smaller packages. Smart to get something in the regional press.
