    It would be quite the bill to foot for an organisation that’s already pretty expensive to run.

    You mean two organizations: Mercedes-Benz AG and Petronas. The Red Bull F1 team isn’t the owner and sponsor of Red Bull Ring either.

    They are a business after all.

    So is Red Bull and the incentive is to promote the brand.

      I mean, I’m pretty sure this must have been considered by them already, so if they still haven’t done it, it’s probably because the numbers just don’t check out.

      Its clear that organisations like RB, Merc and Ferrari are highly adept at (and love) making money. If they’re not partaking in a potential opportunity, there must be truly be a compelling economic behind that with the sort of information that you and I are simply not privy to.
