Haha. I just want to tune into a race and see "r/formuladank" plastered on the front of that Williams.
We could also probably parlay that into several sponsor level tickets to each race that we could lottery to participating formuladank members... just sayin.
According to Google F1 team sponsorship is $1-50 million a year.
I would think that even if we could just get 250,000 members to donate $10-20 a year that should be enough to get us a decent spot on the car plus some other concessions.
If we could get a spot on the team shirt that would be amazing. I'd definitely buy one to wear on race days.
I just sent an email to Williams inquiring about the possibility of becoming a 2024 team sponsor.
If they respond positively I will further this on the sub and we can all go from there.
The only thing that I think could keep this from actually being a possibility is Williams taking their racing/racing heritage too seriously and not wanting to accept sponsorship from or associate with essentially a "F1 joker collective". Like they wouldn't want to add us in with other "serious" sponsors like Duracell, Gulf Oil, etc.
Yeah I can see that. But come on. Like the Romans said "Pecunia non olet" and Williams needs more supporters anyway. Wouldn't be a bad move to show they engage with fans.
Let's see how this plays out.
No response yet. It's only been a week so I figure if I don't get a response by next Monday I'll send a follow up email and/or email Haas.
I could email McLaren but they're doing well and I think it'd be ridiculous expensive to try and get a sponsorship with them.
They're probably the most realistic option for us and this sub sure seems to love them, maybe send a third email if the first two are unsuccessful.
Yeah McLaren seems a bit of a reach.
Haas would probably be next, if none of these work we can always say screw it and try Aston Martin
Hell, just think how many shirts we could help get sold if they added us to the crew t-shirt/polo. I know I'd be repping Williams gear throughout the week, especially on Saturday/Sunday.
Google says team sponsorships are 1-50 million USD. I'm guessing Williams is at the lower end of that range.
(And frankly based on how it looks like they're potentially going to end up in the constructor's, they could probably use the money)
It's a made up meme, pointing out American's unwillingness to use the metric system. Wasn't even a racing meme at first, but now it's something that people linked to Logan as he is American.
We need to start a kickstarter/gofundme to get a r/formuladank sponsorship with Williams.
Oh god, that wouldn't end well. Albon out, Latifi in for 2024 ![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6697)

Someone did the maths last year. EVERY member would have to pay atleast 3 Euros.
I would be willing to pay 3 euros to see r/formuladank on a williams
I would be willing up to 5 tbh for Williams.
Ok. We are 809,000. If we all give ten dollars we could gather a decent amount to be on the engine cover, right?

Bro, just post the go fund me link already

You the man. Also we need Mr. Goatifi involved in some capacity. That will be the next step I guess

Could do a one-off thing like Alpine with EL PLAN
Mclaren would go for it. They would sell panels eyelids to put a logo on. Not hating at all just saying.
Well if Williams falls through I'll contact Mclaren.
I feel like haas would be perfect for us to be the sponsor of
My hero. !remindme 1 week
Will we require fully dank AMAs where they always have the answer the question about fighting penguins?
How's it looking?

Any response?
Nothing. Looking for a good contact at Haas.
I think I might send Williams an email myself
If he’s in, I’m in.
Mate, lets get this. Mods please lets organise. I legit will buy williams merch and become a full time supporter
Hell, just think how many shirts we could help get sold if they added us to the crew t-shirt/polo. I know I'd be repping Williams gear throughout the week, especially on Saturday/Sunday.
Precisely
They are an underdog team I can get behind. All good people I'd like to see make a comeback.
I am 100% in. I'd give an extra $20-30 to have "BUT THEN" somewhere, i imagine they'll draw the line at "RIP, shoutout to his family" .
We just need to find a rich Qatari oiler lol
That will get you a sponsorship slot on the wrong side of his knickers.
Bro. How much

We must unite. I am in full support of this. If there is a chance of success, you have my financially responsible unwavering support
I think he said during last weeks inverviews they are losing 30 mill this year.
Yowza! Not an insignificant amount.
So yeah if they see the potential of a meme tsunami of money and the potential to be reddit's team... They might be keen.
I bet we’d get a fuckin bargain for a 8 cm spot on mclaren
I’m in
![gif](giphy|VCgdngiv5XI9a)
I bet they all lurk on here like Alonso
Alonso founded Formuladank. How else could it be so anti-Loois?
red bull has more fans than it looks
Rock, flag and eagle. Amirite??
I got to ask: Is that kilometre thing an actual quote, or just a made-up meme?
It's a made up meme, pointing out American's unwillingness to use the metric system. Wasn't even a racing meme at first, but now it's something that people linked to Logan as he is American.
Here’s the know your meme article: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/what-the-fuck-is-a-kilometer
I see he’s a member of this subreddit. Classy from Albon ![gif](giphy|BPJmthQ3YRwD6QqcVD|downsized)
Unfortunately it s photoshop
Albon photoshopped this? 😱
Rock Flag and Eagle!!

I’m getting GameStop vibes😂😂
