The sponsorship fee of two million RMB per year, for a 4x8 cm advertisement on the front of a driver's chest, is indeed a high price in China's racing world.
Among domestic drivers, only Cheng Congfu's certain tobacco brand and Ma Qingye's sponsor "Imperial Vehicle Silverstone" can exceed this, even Han Han, who won titles in both circuit and off-road racing. Apart from the added influence of his writer fame, the advertising sponsorship on his racing suit doesn't reach this price.
However, for a driver with a probability of entering F1, this is only equivalent to the lowest tier standard.
The reason is simple: in this era, Schumacher has not completely retired, and new generation kings such as Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen, Hamilton, and Vettel are rising.
The birth of the "Battle of Gods" means that F1's influence has not yet entered the decline phase of the Mercedes Dynasty and remains one of the world's top three sports projects, even slightly ahead of the most popular domestic NBA.
