    They sponsor a lot of motorsports teams in WEC, IMSA, and GT World Challenge as well. The owner is a fervent Democrat advocate & donor. F1 and motorsport in general has been associated with questionable sponsors in the past and I think it will continue. Rich Energy, Sahara Force India, and others are recent examples.

    @Napier Railton, you have some good picks. I first started watching F1 around 1981. While the ground effects era had some great ones like the Brabham BT49 you picked as well as the Williams FW07, Ligier JS11, Renault RE20 and RE30, Lotus 79, and Ferrari 126C2 among the top race winning cars others were less impressive like the Ensign N79, Theodore TY01, Alfa Romeo 177, the entire Toleman output, and even the 1979 Ferrari title winner 312T4 – which I thought was aesthetically a dog.

    In terms of overall I would probably say 1971-78 period just for the stylistic variance – even the airboxes were different. Brabham BT42 which had a great array of customer cars in 1974-75 is probably my favorite overall with the Tyrrell P34, UOP Shadows, and 1977-78 Ferraris.
