              Darknoor, 17 Mar 2022I never expected McLaren to sink so low.That's how the porpoising effect works for every team, no one expected the car to sink so low, but getting a major sponsorship such as Google/Android would leave anyone ecstatic.

I... moreF1 is an "high-rollers" sport with very high advertisements fees, thus a prime venue for luxury brands and very premium stuff (with few exceptions here and there). The point is, in a world where iOS and iPhones are the "default" premium choices, there is a car proving that Android already made the cut into the "high-rollers" world.

                  It's all about brand recognition in the very top tier. Crushing the idea that Android is only for the broke masses or those that don't know any better. It will be hard to break the heard mentality, though.

It's the same story as Lenovo's current partnership with Formula One Management (FOM) itself where Lenovo will provide their technology and products to the whole sporting organization.

And apparently this kind of marketing really bring success as that brand now being recognised in other part of the world .. plus being able to present in big market like China.
