It's definitely one of the top liveries of all time but I personally think the john Player Special livery is number one. Damn that Marlboro Mclaren was sexy though
4:05 more on that, the reason why Verstappen was given a 5 second time penalty so quickly for overtaking Kimi Raikkonen off track, was because the stewards didn’t want him in the complications of drinking on the podium because he was under the legal drinking age.
Marlboro is probably one of the most iconic sponsors in Formula 1. That amazing red and white McLaren from the 70's to the 90's and of course, Michael Schumacher's Ferrari with Marlboro branding on. Shame it's been banned now
why shame? it's advertising that doesn't work on adults who already either are smokers or not... so it actually works best on youngsters. pretty nefarious if you ask me.
@@alveolate the simple fact that we're still talking about tobacco advertisements in 2022 means that their past investments to sponsor F1 earned them LIFELONG advertisement and exposure. When F1 makes throwback videos on past GPs you can still see Marlboro, Camel and other cigarette brands.
There’s been some amazing branding over the years. When I bought my first camera it had to be a Canon just because of the William’s early 90s livery. When I smoked I had rothmans royals again because of the Williams sponsorship. Quite powerful, you can see why they pay so much money to have it on the cars.
When Williams won their first race at Silverstone in 1979, their main sponsor was Saudia Airlines with 'Fly Saudia' on the back wing. Before the podium ceremony Frank sent up a note to winner Clay Regazzoni telling him not to drink the champagne as drinking alcohol on prime time telly might offend the sponsor. Despite being the owner of a fledgling team, good old Frank's business sense told him what his priorities were.
Ferrari (Marlboro) McLaren Mercedes (West) Renault (Mild Seven) BAR Honda (Lucky Strike) Those are main tobacco sponsors of F1 teams when I grew up as a kid watching F1. On top of that, there's also Williams (Hewlett-Packard/Compaq), Jordan (Benson & Hedges) and Jaguar (HSBC) as well as now defunct Arrows team (Orange).
almost every one of these sport regulators are hypocritical af. FIFA made sanctions against Mexico for their "offensive" chants but organized WCs on countries where it's illegal to be homosexual...
Can you be specific? Russia is mass bombing civilians following their invasion. Russia should be banned for this act. Can you please tell the world why you think the US should be banned?
@Arif Al Amin I’m pretty sure most countries have been in conflict with other countries, for most of their history. Just look at the UK, France, or Germany, for example. The reason why Russia is not being raced at is because it is invading another nation for power, while the US’s recent wars were over terrorism and the protection of American citizens from these terrorists. Unfortunately, the war lasted longer than it should, but now the US has pulled back its troops. In your mind, the only countries that could host F1 are Sweden and Switzerland. Sorry, but just calling other people “maniacs” just because they don’t agree with your viewpoint is pretty ridiculous.
In Gran Turismo Sport, which I currently own, the Rothman's logo on my Porcshe 962C is removed because since the game was developed in Japan, they had their "anti-tobacco" laws. Same thing with the Lancia Delta HF Rally Car '92 and the Lancia Delta S4 '85 in Gran Turismo 4. The Martini logo was removed because of Japan's anti-alcohol laws.
I think Marlboro and Rothmans liveries have become so iconic in motorsports that a piece of history is lost by banning them. It's not like most people don't already know cigarettes and alcohol are bad
but what would be the point of sponsoring a team for "nostalgia" when the side effect of doing so is encouraging harmful consumption of products they sell edit: he changed it, he said he wanted to bring the sponsors back for nostalgia
Fun fact the Heineken sponsorship also shuts down ANY motorsports sponsorship deals in the USA. This includes their sister brands as well such as Dos Equis
Worth pointing out Lucky Strike were involved with the then 500cc, now MotoGP, Suzuki team in the early 90s. As was, hilariously enough, Rothmans as welll. Was there a series Rothmans didn't at least try to end up in? Also no. I instantly thought of the Arrows for some reason and then in quick succession, the Jordans, with the hornets and snakes. That team had some hella talented artists working for them. Gotta love the Bitten and Hissen, and the Buzzin Hornets one too. Also, yes, Red Bull was, for a time, banned in France too. Kind of awkward for RBR too..and I swear France had some of the best ways to get around the ban on cigarette adverts. The R ? and such. Also, yes, the vid/article didn't say it but you can take a wild guess why the Middle Eastern nations look down on alcohol. it's not just limited to F1, however. Motorcycles have very, very prominent Coronoa (ironic) branding, the Mexican beer before they change their name and they'd do what Gaulois did. The Go!!! (which is another fantastic way to get around the restrictions too come to think of it. made the team look quicker than theyy were. Hello late 90s Prost. Backmarkers with a fantastic livery and that one GT team running a Viper in the early 00s, or was it a Corvette?) Also those rules applied double so to F1 videogames too at the time, too
Rothmans was the title sponsor for the Honda factory team in the old 500 cc from 1981 to 1993 I think. Repsol, the current sponsor, replaced them in 94 when they got the Williams sponsorship. Marlboro sponsored Roberts Yamaha (the de facto factory team for Yamaha for many years) and, later, Ducati.
Heineken actually promotes the 0.0 alcohol at F1 races so technically it’s not alcohol even though the brand is synonymous with alcohol. I’d like to see anti tobacco advertising like “DEATH, CANCER or TUMOUR” that would go down a treat.. lol
Although Penthouse sponsored Heskith in the 70s IIRC adult entertainment companies have been banned since the late 90s when Tyrrell was blocked from running cyber erotica branding. (which led to the Xena ads as Five were part of the same group at the time)
So...nothing you mentioned was actually banned. You have "as long as no one asks," and regionally restricted sponsors (the teams can run them but are subject to local laws) but there isn't a "DO NOT PUT THIS ON YOUR CAR," sponsor class.
The point that stuck out for me was at the end. Vettel with the most overtakes award. Remember back in the 2010s when the cynics used to say “Vettel can’t race wheel-to-wheel” and “Vettel can’t overtake” They look very silly right now
The Mission Winnow logo was just a blob to me. I never understood what is supposed to be and what company it represented. I do not think I was alone to never grasp it. A total waste of marketing money.
A small suggestion to you guys, your black or dark greyish background is very similar to the youtube's dark mode black background, I suggest you guys should change that dark greyish colour with the youtube's black colour background...it will look so slick! Just give it a try once. Love your videos
It didn't begin with Lotus, it was Team Gunston (another tobacco brand) at the 1968 South African GP. Team Lotus then began wearing sponsorship in the start of the following Tasman Series before the iconic Gold Leaf Team Lotus appeared at Levin
It used to be the same with Nascar. Home Depot was Tony Stewart. Dupont was Jeff Gordon. Mr. Goodwrench was Dale sr. Budweiser was Dale Jr. Lowes was Jimmy Johnson. STP was Richard Petty. Now these cars are sponsored by companies that are not that well known.
How about a Rusty Wallace/Kurt Busch/Brad Keselowski's Miller Lite and Sterling Marlin/David Stremme's Coors Light has now banned in NASCARs Sponsorship.
@@Quaker763Or bananas as well wasn't it? Found an old CD of the (admittedly awful) Rally Challenge (not to be confused with the much better and later released Rallisport Challenge), which had a lot of 555 branding in it, up to and including, a biography of the company, and shots of the 555 sponsored Scooby for menu backgrounds, now granted when you had the menus up you couldn't see a lot of it
I still find it amazing that advertising is as valuable as it is. It just proves how easily brainwashed people are. If someone is willing to pay $160,000,000 just to put a logo on an F1 car, you don't just think it will draw people to your product, you expect to make a profit off your investment. It's scary how easy this works on people. I guess it also explains why so many conspiracy theories are believed and how people end up in cults without intending to. If you see or hear the same thing over and over again from what you consider a reliable source, you will believe it to be true.
bro, your content is TOP TIER. The news ancor voice kills me tho. Try to read/record with some emotion. But in the same breath, what ain broke dont fix it right ?
Tobacco sponsors are not banned from F1 BU from any kind of sponsorship. Many people think that it was actually F1 who banned tobacco sponsors. It's just an EU law.
And yet Sauber were allowed to have a gambling company as their title sponsor which to me gambling can have a truly devastating effect more than tobacco
in motorsport overall. The most well known (and likely only) racing in the world where they never had a car was Nascar, because Winston signed as a series sponsor with exclusive rights, only RJ Reynolds brands could be advertised (that was their move when the FCC banned their direct ads on TV after they made an ad with Fred and Barney from The Flinstones). Their presence was huge because they backed major teams that won almost all the time. McLaren in F1, Penske in Indycar, Peter Brock in the old ATCC, I think Toyota in group B rally, Yamaha in the old 500 cc.
Yeah, lets just ban individual choices and personal sovereignty next. Clearly, people cant decide whats best for them on their own, and need a leader like you Kenzie
Don't forget the "Durex" Surtees TS19 back in 1976 for the British Grand Prix Still can't believe how they manage to get a tampon brand to sponsor the team! 😄
Fun fact in '76 Murray Walker was under strict instruction not to mention Durex on the BBC, yet by '88 when they sponsored bikes he basically had to do a safe sex promo before every race.
Ferrari still makes good promotion for Marlboro. The logo is just a pack of Marlboro held at a 45 degree angle and a little twist to not make it look like the Marlboro logo. (The bend in the top of the white triangle instead of a pointy corner.
The first tobacco company/livery of any note was the first sponsor as you showed. JP Gold Leaf, then the JPS black & gold Lotus of the late 70s. It's so iconic that the modern "Lotus"/Renault team copied the colours. IIRC wasn't it voted to be the most beautiful livery ever or something like that? Tbh, I'd rather see non-tobacco products on the side of cars (especially the ones to help you give up) than any gambling ads. Gambling causes millions of families a great deal of misery throughout the world, especially in certain countries where it's virtually as commonplace as eating. But even where it's regulated by governments (yet still allowed, such as the UK), many families are destroyed every year by one member's gambling addiction. I don't know where I heard this, and I won't stand by it if someone has the actual data and can prove it wrong (it just seems to make sense to me), that gambling has more negative effects on the whole family than a single person drinking too much or smoking (as long as they don't smoke in the same room as kids). As debts pile up, gamblers will beg, borrow and steal from the immediate family, then the extended family, until someone says no or they all run out of money - in some cases they give initially because they're lied to regarding why the money is required (bills, a sudden breakdown of necessary appliances, school supplies...) then it's to "save the gambler" (and maybe their immediate family) from "violent people", who may not even exist. Emotional blackmail is an incredibly powerful weapon. Not only will the gambler and their own spouse & kids lose their home, but other family members can end up losing theirs too. And desperation can lead to violent acts in much the same way alcohol can turn otherwise nice people into monsters. F1, the FIA and world governments should work together on what is acceptable and what is dangerous to advertise. Tobacco, alcohol and gambling should be high on the "banned" list IMHO.
And how alcohol is banned at certain circuits, even though I probably know why. Still, Im pretty sure alcohol is harmless compared to tobacco, crypto and gambling.
I get the push to make Tobacoo advertisements illegal as well as alcohol but both are major sponsers in racing history. TBH, I can see Marijuana going legal and potentially Malboro branded joints being a thing.
They need money, not livery ideas, if they put on a livery, their chances of getting a title sponsor will drop by a lot which will end up in them leaving F1
I thought gambling advertisement would be banned in Brazil. Well, it's not like our government would go out of their way and bother F1 to not show such sponsors. But except for lottery gambling is illegal. But the money rules, F1 won't just ban something if they know the government will do nothing to them, even if the advertisement is about something illegal
NFTs are not cryptocurrency. They are two totally different concepts with different functions & applications. The only similarity is that they are both built on a blockchain. All of the sponsors in F1 are cryptocurrency exchanges
The main difference is that they're non-fungible. They're equally pointless, predatory and based on speculation. Ones based on proof of work (prevalent) or proof of storage (seldom implemented, if at all) are also extremely bad in terms of energy and electronics waste. It's gambling (or outright fraud) combined with bad engineering. Also, doesn't crypto com run an NFT marketplace? Tezos is into it too. Heck, McLaren themselves shilled a collection a year or two ago.
Because of plain packaging I had never seen any of these brand logos so I was like "wtf is this company on a bunch of the cars and tracks that I have never seen before"
I hope as a tribute to seb for winning the first overtake award, the fia gives all future winners of the award 1 million jellybeans.
An NFT of 1 million jellybeans, more like

The most well known (and likely only) racing in the world where they never had a car was Nascar, because Winston signed as a series sponsor with exclusive rights, only RJ Reynolds brands could be advertised (that was their move when the FCC banned their direct ads on TV after they made an ad with Fred and Barney from The Flinstones). Their presence was huge because they backed major teams that won almost all the time. McLaren in F1, Penske in Indycar, Peter Brock in the old ATCC, I think Toyota in group B rally, Yamaha in the old 500 cc.
SportPesa was title sponsor of Racing Point in 2019, wasn't it a bet company?
I'd never thought you'd mention the term NFT lol 🤣
All those examples should all be banned.
Also, massively disappointed in Grosjean for promoting NFT's by taking part in the "GP Metaverse".
No money no F1
Judge not, least ye be judged.
Even pre-budget cap era, plenty of teams thrived without these insidious businesses.
It's gonna be a whole new Rich Energy fiasco when all of the cryptocurrency stuff crashes lol
Cryptocurrency is cringe
@@KitKitChanIsaac Fiat currency is cringe
tell that to people that purchased bitcoin pre 2020. This mentality is just people that don't understand the technology.
The fact tobacco hasn't been fully banned baffles me
Capitalism at its finest
and alcohol, and gambling, ...
And crypto….
Shady stuff pays more, so that's it
Yeah, lets just ban individual choices and personal sovereignty next. Clearly, people cant decide whats best for them on their own, and need a leader like you Kenzie
Tabacco was banned years ago. So, tobacco is the only productm end of video. BAR was a team in the 1960s. Nothing to do with cigarrettes.
Bunch of a waste of money, I literally can't recall a sponsor on a car and with that my choice in purchases clearly has not been influenced.
Even the safety car is sponsored by Croudstrike
Don't forget the "Durex" Surtees TS19 back in 1976 for the British Grand Prix
Still can't believe how they manage to get a tampon brand to sponsor the team! 😄
yeah, who doesn't know the tampons from the most famous condom brand
@@sebastianpeheim8851 does Durex even make Tampons?
Fun fact in '76 Murray Walker was under strict instruction not to mention Durex on the BBC, yet by '88 when they sponsored bikes he basically had to do a safe sex promo before every race.
Jordan, being sponsored by penthouse nude magazine for men and had women in racing suits unzip all over the cars and drivers lol
Must have been the Australian sticky tape branding.
If I was a tobacco company I would change my name to "WeRaceAsOne"
Marlboro is featured on certain tracks... Not only just the cars
0:58
I was just about to pop off about smoking being banned
That popping out from Ferrari 0:07 😂😂
Ferrari still makes good promotion for Marlboro. The logo is just a pack of Marlboro held at a 45 degree angle and a little twist to not make it look like the Marlboro logo. (The bend in the top of the white triangle instead of a pointy corner.
The first tobacco company/livery of any note was the first sponsor as you showed. JP Gold Leaf, then the JPS black & gold Lotus of the late 70s. It's so iconic that the modern "Lotus"/Renault team copied the colours. IIRC wasn't it voted to be the most beautiful livery ever or something like that?
Tbh, I'd rather see non-tobacco products on the side of cars (especially the ones to help you give up) than any gambling ads. Gambling causes millions of families a great deal of misery throughout the world, especially in certain countries where it's virtually as commonplace as eating. But even where it's regulated by governments (yet still allowed, such as the UK), many families are destroyed every year by one member's gambling addiction.
I don't know where I heard this, and I won't stand by it if someone has the actual data and can prove it wrong (it just seems to make sense to me), that gambling has more negative effects on the whole family than a single person drinking too much or smoking (as long as they don't smoke in the same room as kids).
As debts pile up, gamblers will beg, borrow and steal from the immediate family, then the extended family, until someone says no or they all run out of money - in some cases they give initially because they're lied to regarding why the money is required (bills, a sudden breakdown of necessary appliances, school supplies...) then it's to "save the gambler" (and maybe their immediate family) from "violent people", who may not even exist. Emotional blackmail is an incredibly powerful weapon. Not only will the gambler and their own spouse & kids lose their home, but other family members can end up losing theirs too. And desperation can lead to violent acts in much the same way alcohol can turn otherwise nice people into monsters.
F1, the FIA and world governments should work together on what is acceptable and what is dangerous to advertise. Tobacco, alcohol and gambling should be high on the "banned" list IMHO.
Yes but what if u win tho?
Funny that tabacco is banned but crypto scams are allowed.
And how alcohol is banned at certain circuits, even though I probably know why.
Still, Im pretty sure alcohol is harmless compared to tobacco, crypto and gambling.
And gambling companies are allowed courtesy of Stake sponsoring Sauber
I get the push to make Tobacoo advertisements illegal as well as alcohol but both are major sponsers in racing history. TBH, I can see Marijuana going legal and potentially Malboro branded joints being a thing.
Can we start a petition for Haas to add the Ukrainian flag to its livery
yes indeed we shall!
Yes!
They need money, not livery ideas, if they put on a livery, their chances of getting a title sponsor will drop by a lot which will end up in them leaving F1
@@joshjackburns Actually, supporting Ukraine is a good business (marketing) opportunity now - and yes, I do know how bizarre this sounds.
Maybe for all teams?
so you are saying that the reason there is sponsors on F1 cars is cuz they look wierd without them?
I pose this question. Given the global move away from fossil fuels do you think fuel/oil based sponsor's like shell and gulf be banned in 15/20 years?
No, because by then they’ll bring out there green fuel once it’s not profitable to drill for oil , but that will be right at the very end of oil use.
The best bit is the Ferarri red now is soooo much better than previous years
They should ban RedBull sponsorship. This lemonade contains less coffein than a cup of coffee and contains huge amount of industrial sugar.
If you ban every questionable product from F1, there won't be much left.
I thought gambling advertisement would be banned in Brazil. Well, it's not like our government would go out of their way and bother F1 to not show such sponsors. But except for lottery gambling is illegal. But the money rules, F1 won't just ban something if they know the government will do nothing to them, even if the advertisement is about something illegal
What an excellent informative video, cheers 👍
Ironic, you can't have a sponsor that promotes using vapes instead of cigarettes, but you can have sponsors that promote money laundering (crypto)
So money laundering isn't done through FIAT money?
Did you know, that percentage wise crypto is used less for illegal activity than FIAT money?
I really really hate betting sponsors in any sport. Shouldn't be allowed at all.
NFTs are not cryptocurrency. They are two totally different concepts with different functions & applications. The only similarity is that they are both built on a blockchain. All of the sponsors in F1 are cryptocurrency exchanges
The main difference is that they're non-fungible. They're equally pointless, predatory and based on speculation. Ones based on proof of work (prevalent) or proof of storage (seldom implemented, if at all) are also extremely bad in terms of energy and electronics waste. It's gambling (or outright fraud) combined with bad engineering.
Also, doesn't crypto com run an NFT marketplace? Tezos is into it too. Heck, McLaren themselves shilled a collection a year or two ago.
Cigarettes sponsors were cool!! And they never influenced me at all… I didn’t even know what most of them were until years later.
Agreed. Marlboro McLaren is legendary. West as well
Because of plain packaging I had never seen any of these brand logos so I was like "wtf is this company on a bunch of the cars and tracks that I have never seen before"
Bring mission winnow back the logo was amazing on the ferrari
I’m surprised alcohol sponsers are banned at the Russia Grand Prix isnt vodka the national drink
But the velo on mcl is snus
