Brand Formula: An F1 Marketing Podcast

Welcome to Brand Formula: An F1 Marketing Podcast - Episode 2

All is well for Italy, and it's all love for Peter Bonnington following a brilliant race weekend in China. One of us cried, and the hole in our Ferrari/Hamilton heart is whole again.

Down to business, in this episode we breakdown the Disney x F1 partnership, Cadillac taking their American brand to the global "car show", and what happens with your sponsors when you no show on the grid (McClaren) and fail to start a season (Aston Martin.)

First up, Disney has joined the paddock to "Fuel The Magic" but what are they actually up to. We breakdown their early partnership moves across the first 2 GPs, collab launches with Uniqlo, miniso, and Gentle Monster, their Webtoons and more. What's a hit and what's a miss.

Cadillac held a car launch in Shanghai, and we take a look at what a statement that is.

And last, with two DNS for McLaren, and a car still testing with Aston Martin, we talk through what happens when you fail to meet expectations of your sponsorship contracts in live sport, and who an IOU actually hurts.

This episode is for fans of F1, marketers, or both. We hope you enjoy. Please like and subscribe. We're also dropping episode clips and some of our favourite F1 creators content at @brandformulapod on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

Enjoy the episode!

Welcome to Brand Formula: An F1 Marketing Podcast. We are Mordecai and Elyssa, your hosts with 30 years of combined marketing experience and a genuine love for this sport. One of us has been watching since childhood. One of us was converted by a pandemic and a Netflix show. Both of us have opinions.

Episode one and we are straight into it. Australia delivered a race weekend with a lot to talk about, and we are not here for the race recap. We are here for everything happening around it.

Apple TV made their F1 debut this weekend and we have thoughts. The product? A genuine upgrade. The launch? A missed opportunity. When the fans are doing your onboarding comms for you, something has gone wrong. We get into what Apple got right, what they left on the table, and what this deal could actually become as the season builds.

Then we get into AI. Every team seems to have one now and the logos are on the cars. But can anyone actually explain what they do or why it matters to a fan? We break down the full grid of AI partnerships, the numbers behind them, the cash versus utility split that is quietly reshaping how sponsorship value works in the cost cap era, and which partnership we think is doing it best.

Episode one. Come for the marketing takes, not the lap times.

Lights out.
