Santander to sponsor British GP

Although it is yet to be confirmed it seems that the Spanish Banco Santander will soon be named as the title sponsor of the British GP, responding no doubt to rival ING's huge investment in F1 this year. The race sponsorship money does not go to the Silverstone authorities but is one of the things that Allsport Management collects. Allsport has been owned in recent months by the Formula One group, thus ensuring that all the revenues being generated in the sport go into the same pot.
