If Williams was sold, what actually would they be selling, the name? Or the F1 team/entry?
They're a company that runs a team, can't really see how you'd split that up. Unlike say BAR selling a team to Honda, selling to to Virgin etc, that's selling* an otherwise anonymous team to a new title sponsor. How would you sell "Williams"? It's either then "williams-.........." F1 team, or it's not Williams anymore.
*may or may not have been sold rather than just changed sponsor, but you get my drift.
Its like an MTB/F1 version of Tiger King. We need to goad Storey into doing something even more stupid.
If Williams was sold, what actually would they be selling
Commercial applications for lots of F! technology is pretty wide. Most F1 firms have a side line in engine, systems design engineering. Although, agreed, if you strip out the F1 team/name, Williams probs doesn't won a ton of actual stuff.
This just popped up on my YouTube feed
What if someone wanted to bump it up to 500 posts? can they post then?
I'd say that was acceptable.
I’ve always liked the number 502.
I could really do with some buff horse glue, sounds strong.
Appreciate this isn't going to help, but did Whyte ever get paid the money they won in the court case?
Seems a long process to have to by build your own horse, feed it supplements to get the glue?
Whyte may have won, but the person / company they sued may not have had any money to actually pay them with. Rich Energy faild to pay Hass the sponsorship money.
Guess who's back?
Oh my...!
Scammer gonna keep on scamming!
He's either a massive troll, or it's some sort of conceptual performance art project.
Did anyone else see him on the Netflix F1 show. Great beard. Sadly they rather let him control the message

Can someone not do one of these 'back at the scammer' tricks on him?
Rich Energy are now sponsoring a British Superbike Team - Rich Energy OMG Racing. Let's see how long this one lasts.
Well it’s evidently lasted the five months since that fact first appeared on this thread…
No doubt helped along by the 4 months of no racing due to the pandemic...
Sorry Bez, I should have read the thread from start to finish before posting. Prick.

Yeah, but no need to be so hard on yourself.
On the bright side, at least it’s kept the thread on the front page where it belongs 😀
I am impressed that they are still convincing people that they are a drink company.
The nutter is trying to buy Sunderland Football Club now. Even me, a Middlesbrough fan, wouldn't wish that on them.

From his Twitter he also seems to be a Coronavirus and Climate Change sceptic.
Watched the Netflix F1 doc the other a day, was surprised how little they focused on how mental rich/storey were. There was a bit on them signing the deal then ‘haas weren’t good enough so rich pulled the rest of the funding’.
I guess they were just a sponsor but would have made interesting viewing
The Rich Energy drama is, truly, the gift that keeps on giving.

Given that they haven't paid Whyte (from what I've heard, anyway), any legal action could be fun!
I spotted the logo & name on the leathers of Alvaro Bautista (factory Honda world superbike) yesterday too!
Surely all these companies wouldn’t promote the brand without actually being paid up front? There’s been enough ‘history’ to make anyone nervous.....
Did you see the logo change?
lol
😄🤭 can't believe you clicked on this again.
Must admit that's pretty funny, but dont be surprised if Kerley calls you a troll. 😀
Not sure if this has been posted- but it seems whyte have a good sense of humour. The photo above is the cover for the charging port on the whyte ebikes
That's outstanding!
That is awesome...
I bet they asked more than one Lawyer to check out the font on "Energy" though, I'd hope it's generic.
That's just brilliant. Whyte have won the internet for the rest of 2020 with that one as far as I'm concerned!
Well done Whyte.
I bet they asked more than one Lawyer to check out the font on “Energy” though, I’d hope it’s generic.
I bet Rich Energy downloaded it from one of those '1 million and 1 free fontz' websites and it's free for none commercial use.
It's a different font anyway
