Sponsors

"French rider Hugo Payen was sponsored by a French 'adult film' producer for this year's Dakar, resulting in an unusual paint job...!"

A few years ago,  a socialite, Pris Hilton sponsored Moto3 team, which its bikes ended with full of baby blue, baby pink and stars paint job. Many of motorsports fans complained, calling the bikes Barbie bikes. I never understood the mentality of it. Sponsors are sponsors; they are giving you  valuable resources to race.  So who cares?  If they are giving me money to race, I don't care if the sponsor is selling penis enlarger, feminine hygiene products, or adult diaper.    Better than not being able to afford a part.
