To put your figures into perspective,
20% of 4 million is £800k.
A driver who was looking to pay for a seat in one of the lower order cars in 2016 was offering a range of sponsorship packages which, if they were all taken, would amount to nearly £1.4 million.
Given that that was just to pay for one season's drive in a car not expected to break into the top ten regularly, do you still think teams at the front of the grid run their cars for between £600k and £800k?
