Martini came back to F1 in 2014, Honda are back in 2015 and Porsche were back at Le Mans (LMP1) this year is there anyone else you'd like to see come back to a particular kind of motorsport that's been gone a while?

 

Personally, I want to see Ford back in F1 because Jaguar was a crap end to their involvement.  I'd also like to see Parmalat return as a sponsor, purely because I like Parma ham.

[George Costanza]

Porsche in F1.

[AlexLangheck]

Ford should have a global Motorsport programme. Either WEC or WRC, and GTE doesn't count. Also, an Italian marque back in WRC, WEC. Alfa or Fiat please.

[NoSanityClause]

Copersucar.

Good call on the Italian marque.  Maybe Lancia too, though they aren't what they used to be.

[George Costanza]

Alfa would indeed be great....

[WhiteSGPlayer]

Pescarolo!

[bogi]

Minardi, with proper young talents not pay hacks.

[BullHead]

Elf

they sort of live on as a subsidiary of Total.

 

I really want to see agip back on a ferrari. **** was beautiful.

 

[BullHead]

[KTownDevil]

Porsche and Marlboro in F1

[saudoso]

JPS

[Dick Dastardly]

Cigarette companies....think of the cars and championships they sponsored.....

John Player.....Gold Leaf & John Player Loti plus Players No 6 Autocross Championships

W.D. & H.O. Wills...Embassy....Rallycross, Works Fords on '71 RAC Rally, Graham Hill's F1 team

Guards....60s GT Race Series 

etc etc

[Amphicar]

Connew, Pratt & Whitney

[ATM]

That's one dead dog, the cigarettes sponsorships. Except the unnatural presence of Marlboro at Ferrari, with their livery insinuations, it's not likely we will see other companies soon. And what beautiful liveries they were, Gauloises (Ligier), B&H (Jordan) etc. 

 

I vote for BMW as a F1 presence. And Durex as a sponsor (not necessarily in the same team).

[Lemans]

Matra

Brabham

Olivetti

[Spaceframe]

Maserati - regular GP contenders for decades, some of the most beautiful cars ever: The 8CTF, the San Remo, various sports cars and of course the 250F...

 

French cars in blue would be nice as well - as would a French GP, at Rouen, Reims, Clermont-Ferrand, Pau, Monthlery or even Dijon, just not at flat and featureless Magny-Cours....

[Kop Alonso]

Great topic......

To start as said before Agip & also Goodyear ideally on a Ferrari with black front & rear wings.

Also A bit of blue with Parmalat, Gitanes, Antar, Olivetti& Kelemata

Or some obscure sponsors like Landis & Gyr, Simod, Iceberg, Bioptron, Biopoint , Riello, Australian Sportswear

I could go on......

[ANF]

Ambrose Wilson.

[jondon]

[Jamiednm]

Jaguar and BMW as works teams in F1.

[Radoye]

Ford in IndyCars.

[JHSingo]

Jaguar back at Le Mans. I still associate a manufacturer like them far more with Le Mans than F1. Same deal with Porsche.

[Taxi]

GULF in WEC. Lancia in WRC. Alfa in F1. 

[Risil]

Jagermeister!

[Risil]

Ford in IndyCars.

 

Look at who was involved during the last days of Rome CART. Honda have come back with their American subsidiary, and Chevrolet got out at what in retrospect was the right time (1994). The Lotus engine (engine!) programme should stay forgotten. I imagine you only have to say words like "Tony George", "Joe Heitzler", "Andrew Craig" or "Bobby Rahal" in a board room discussing racing programmes and things go eerily quiet.

 

I really hope it happens though.

GULF in WEC.

 

Isn't it already? Aston Martin's GTE cars are sponsored by Gulf.

Coventry Climax...Their engines were LOUD!

[aditya-now]

Ford in IndyCars.

 

Ford in IndyCars, in F1 and in Le Mans. 

 

Of course that's dreaming but the blue oval is a classic marquee!

[Szoelloe]

I would like to see ANY major company BACK to F1. If the value for money rate rises, you may wish for any sponsor. It is not the case, so attending mass at your local church is on the tables. NO, not to get sponsors BACK, just not to lose the current ones.

[GoldenColt]

Jagermeister!

 

... but only if spelt correctly.

[HeadFirst]

McLaren. I've missed their evil presence the last few years.

It's all about the "ä".

 

I'd like to see Goodyear back.

[Chubby_Deuce]

Would love to see the return of the cigarette companies, for financial reasons more than anything.

[HeadFirst]

No its Joggermuffler I think?

I think all of us would love to go back into time and stop May 1 1994 and have him alive.
