Who would be a good sponsor for an F1 Team?

With the new sponsors coming in and the upcoming loss of Tobaco sponsorship, who do you think would be a good sponsor for an F1 team?

With Williams landing Budwiser, it got me thinking: Paul Stoddart went the wrong the wrong direction, he should have tired to keep Webber and went after Australian Sponsorship instead of Maylasion sponsers with AY. Fosters is a big sponsor of the Ausie race right?... They should've sponsored Minardi and Mark Webber...

So Who do you think would be a good sponsor?
Main sponsor or smaller sponsor?
What team?
What Colors?
What Drivers

Heineken (red star, green background) would be a nice sponsor to see in F1. Nice in a Jaguar, or a Minardi... Obviously in green, with the red star and white stripes. They favourite drives would be Dutch ones: that could help Verstappen (or Albers, Doornbos?) to remain in F1.

well aside from beers, why notcomputers? we have HP, after compaq- so where is microsoft? Bill Gates could do a team by himself.
We also have the manufacturers just out right doing it and subsidiaries pf them, like Ford and their main supplier Visteon (as the Panoz had in its first season)
How about Lay's- they make Doritos, and tositos, and fritos they could hjump in the fray
a Dorito ferrari they are both red and a little orange 'chip' where marlboro whit is now, or macdonald's or KFC they are everywhere. for ferrari
the Pharmaceutical Co.'s they could dive in Pfizer and Viagra could offer silver support to Maclaren, with small blue accents, and as for the black they are so famous now for? dunno
everything is a conglomorate now it is hard to separate anyone from someone else, Jordan can get velveeta/kraft sponsor ship, Where is SONY and Nintendo in all this?

Kodak would be a good match with Jordan's yellow paint scheme. Pepsi would go well with Sauber, but they're set with Red Bull.

ESSO already sponsor Toyota. BP would be good for Jag, especially as they already sponsor one of Fords WRC cars.

Microsoft are raking it in. Their OS runs on 90% of PC's in the world. They don't need to advertise!

How much sponsorship is Red bull giving to Sauber?
They should be a tittle sponsor alone or buy into Suaber if they want and then they can put in one of their American drivers in the car

Carrefours?

How about WalMart?

Disney would be an obvious tie in and I think any of the Vegas Casinos could tap into a lucrative market.

The obvoius connections are Hi-tech-but the computer marktet is drying up, Telecom, already well represented, Bio Tech? No consumer good.

Of busibesses in the consumer market, Soft drinks and fast food are the obvous choices. I was always surprised that Bertlesmann and Time Warner hadn't gotten in.

Wal-Mart? I hate, hate, hate Wal-Mart! They're the biggest corporation in the world, but they don't sponsor anything, even NASCAR! Do they have Target outside America? The Ganassi cars have always been very nice.

Disney doesn't sponsor much, either. When they do put their name on something, there is always a small backlash by the surprisingly large Disney-hater population.

Vegas? Why stop at just Vegas? There's Atlantic City, Biloxi, South Padre, Biloxi, Tunica, and the hundreds of Indian gaming houses scattered around the country. And don't forget the riverboats! Ah, most of those are owned by Vegas anyway.

AOL Time Warner has some sticker space on the Toyota. It's practically hemorhagging money right now, so they might not be able to afford a title sponsorship.
