Shame Daytona was a bit of a wash-out, but Alonso certainly showed his class in the wet!

Remember when Mclaren was a premium F1 brand, with only premium sponsors?

I find the whole Rich Energy thing fascinating. I hope Haas don't end up with energy drink egg on their face.

Story on Autosport running with the headline - Doubting Haas F1 backer Rich Energy is like 'denying moon landing'.
From the Rich Energy CEO...
Personally I don't drink the stuff, but a better brand than Red Bull???"We think we've got a better product and brand than Red Bull and it's fantastic to be able to compete with them on and off track."

You can't buy their product in shops. They don't seem to have global distributors, staff, marketing or even mass production.what-time-is-it wrote: ↑Thu Feb 07, 2019 12:34 pmStory on Autosport running with the headline - Doubting Haas F1 backer Rich Energy is like 'denying moon landing'.

They stole a logo from a bike company and added some mini antlers to try and disguise it. All their social media presence is poor attempts at placing some cans on or near things.
I think Williams did well to steer clear. If you've not seen the documentary on Netflix about the Fyre Festival, I highly recommend it and this Rich Energy product feels of a similar calibre.
