Anybody recognise this sponsor logo?

Post by brabhamboy »

Hi all

I'm putting this out to the collective brains of the group in the hope that someone can solve something that has been frustrating me for some time :D

It concerns the Brabham BT60B as driven by Eric van de Poele at Kyalami 1992 - it had specific sponsorship / logo displayed on the nose for the race only and I just can't work it out - I've studied the full race on Youtube in all its grainy glory with no luck (seeing as he trolled around at the back and was only seen when being lapped, it was a forlorn hope at best :P ). All the good quality images from that weekend seem to be of the Amati car, for obvious reasons at the time, and there are only partial images of the logo etc on the actual Poele race car.

I can see "Power Formula" on the front wing and ***UM(?) and ***MEN"(?) on the nose, along with the obvious red and silver chevrons - I'm guessing it was maybe a South African company, as it wasn't seen again in following races??

Google, bow down before the awesomeness of this forum! :D 8)

Can’t think why I never put it ‘out there’ before! :lol:

Orso, a virtual pint to you sir - you have nailed it. Out of interest, where did you get that excellent image from?

Alex - cheers, so close :D

One has to be lucky some time. It was out on the net somewhere. I didn't save it as I don't have any interest it as it is to modern. I just had some time to waste.
