If you've parked in any of Wilson's facilities you'll realise why they have more money than god....

Has been strange with Miss Betty wearing Coca-Cola gear but no signage on the cars. Unless the sponsor is possibly Powerade with their blue/black/silver colours? (As they are part of CCA)

That's not part of a Wilson Security logo is it? It looks familiar from somewhere in motorsport/V8 Supercars, but I just can't place it.

And they're also exceptionally good signing up what venture capitalists might refer to as 'distressed assets'. They find teams that desperately need cash to keep going and pick up naming rights (or as good as) deals at bargain basement prices.

Their entire motorsport expenditure wouldn't cover one Triple Eight car.

Coke recently took 16.7% share in Monster, Lee was in the Coke corporate suite at QR, Lee also has past links with Monster. Betty was supporting Coca-cola at QR. Hmmmmm

Well whoever it is that's great news that they've secured sponsorship for next season next year even if it's only for one of their cars as yet. It's a good step. Let's hope they find another car sponsor soon.

Noticed Holdsworth's car carried Neil Buckby Motors(Northern Tas MB dealer) on the windscreen for the Eastern Creek round.

Perhaps a way of bypassing Mercedes Aus?

Neil Buckby hosted a big contingent of their customers in the corporate area at the Symmons Plains round this year.

If you notice the branding on the wall, the 3 little 'fingers' seem to be an 'Erebus' thing as opposed to a 'sponsor' thing.

It wouldnt be a surprise to see Beko upweight their support to take full title sponsorship of one of the cars...

....certainly the verbage in recent times from the team has made lots of noise about existing partners getting massive benefits from the association, encouraging to tip more dollars in...





Good to see the partner staying in V8Supercar. Hope the contribution is significant financially, and represents the true cost of the space

Same Old Deal At AMG

Wonder if Erebus will sign, or if there is a different brand in the offing

The talk of a Volvo involvement not being a 'works' deal is a bit odd. The story went that Volvo/Polestar would provide an engine supply in return for car signage.. which seems more than is forthcoming from AMG or MBAuP

Continuing to rely on contra deals does not do much for cashflow.

Not much for HRT to choose from there - they might have to poach from elsewhere for next year.

You'd think Rosenberg might have had more to do with HHA than HRT themselves.

Apart from minor sponsorships from Red Rooster (Kellys) and Dodo (Tasman) who else have they pinched? Their SPTools relationship goes back at least as far as SBR's.

You can't ignore the fact that Erebus lost all 3 of its sponsors in one year, so I am not sure it is fair to point the bone at someone for taking up a sponsorship that was going somewhere else.

Fair play by AMG and MBA.

I wonder how much the COTF regulations have to do this or if at all?
