On the point of sponsorship, while non-Dutch companies may be put off by the name, might not Dutch companies (Philips, Shell etc.) be attracted by the idea of 'Racing for Holland'?
These Dutch companies are not really interested in a small market like Holland. When former F1 driver Jos Verstappen was looking for sponsorship in the late 90s the response of Shell was: Comeback if you are world champion. Philips was sponsor of Verstappen during his F3 season ('93) and F1 period at Simtek ('95) and Arrows ('96).
