“Qualcomm, which was already involved with Ferrari, they’ve extended their partnership. Lenovo, which we know recently sponsored F1, and Google. The other company, my number one company, was Salesforce. It is one of the largest US tech firms. There’s some branding that has been spotted at the Australian GP track in Albert Park,” said Landino.

Salesforce is an American cloud-based software company based out of San Francisco, California. The company is heavily involved in analytics, customer services, and application development.
