That was a point really surprised me 3 years ago, Skoda Spain made an advert on TV telling them were WRC2 champions. Didn't remember any similar on main TV recently here in Spain as brands have not been on the national championship involved so much.Quote:

This Peugeot ad comes from 2016, so not so long ago:Quote:

What worries me is the new trend where companies don't want their brand to be associated with motor sport.
Like Mitsubishi and now Neste. Neste was/is an oil company, but now they want to be something else,
so the want nothing to do with rally anymore.
On the other hand Neste rally might go back to Thousand Lakes rally like it used to be.
That is a different issue. What originally caused the name 1000 Lakes Rally to disappear was that AKK took arranging of the Finnish WRC round into their own hands, as the 1000 Lakes Rally organization was in a state of turmoil. They didn't agree with AKK's decision and didn't want to give the rights to use the old name, thus Rally Finland was born. Not sure if 25 years is enough to bury the hatchet though.Quote:

Finally, losing Neste means losing big money. Getting 1000 Lakes Rally back would be nice, but it's really not a title sponsor to replace Neste.

"Let's enjoy driving"
Recent VAG, Ford and even Tesla developments actually counter this.Quote:

Tesla with model 3 performance and recent track fever with Model S plaid
What seem to be the case is that companies don't want to be associated with fossil fuel motorsport, but they use electric motorsport.
There were 2 adverts with Kris

Those who insist that motorsport series using ICE's are at risk should look to Daimler's CEO comments on Mercedes F1 future: https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/k...ould-be-crazy/
Basically, Mr. Kallenius reconfirmed Mercedes F1 program through two principles: cost cutting measures and more efficient hybrid systems. No need for full electric.
On the other thread, someone said that hybrid is a dead end and no money should be spent on it ;)Quote:

Some Omniva parcel terminals in Estonia are decorated with a photo of Hyundai i20 WRC of Ott Tänak https://www.facebook.com/omniva.ee/p...88095964544472
https://www.motorsportforums.com/att...1&d=1607671199
The text on it says "Fast parcel stop on your way home. More than 1 million Estonians (total pop is 1.3) can reach Omniva parcel terminal in less than 5 minutes"
This was not marketing any team or car specifically, but in this summer Eesti Post released a stamp with a photo of Toyota Yaris WRC to celebrate the first WRC Rally in Estonia https://www.omniva.ee/index.php?arti...ction=article&
This ad is now on norways best motorsport site. Hyundai as world champs.

I have just come across an Abarth commercial made for their 70th Anniversary. It mentions their rally wins with Fiat and Lancia:

Nice! Bridgestone Poland adverts feature Tomasz Czopik, Polish rally champion from 20 years ago :)

Another example of a rally car used in an advertisement. Kajto, together with Kamil Stoch and Piotr Zyla (ski jumpers), in an avertisement of Lotos:

And another one - again Kajto, this time used in a promo action of Orlen for small and middle-size business:

Another example in Poland - this time a female rally driver Gosia Prus and Moya petrol stations:
