[edit] Sponsors

Should we add sponsors to the template? They are important! LB22 (talk to me!)Email me! 19:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Sponsors are usually already included in the official name field (e.g. LXXIII ING Australian Grand Prix or LIIV Foster's British Grand Prix). AlexJ (talk) 19:48, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Besides, sponsor names just aren't important in F1. In many years of watching it I have never seen or heard anyone outside the official race programme and the FIA TV feed mention the sponsor name. It just isn't part of the culture in the same was as it is in NASCAR, for example. Pyrope 20:27, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
