Verstappen sponsor reveals reason behind SPLIT from world champion

Supermarket is distancing themselves from wasting money on sporting activities.
“That means we no longer put tens of millions into sports sponsorship, but use it to lower prices. That is the essence of Jumbo as it was meant to be.”
Most welcoming words in early stages this year. Fantastic!
And IF they did, OK. But they don't. They won't lower the prices. Don't get fooled by their "reasons".

It's a thought that counts. :smiley:

Sometimes just not rising prices is actually lowering cost.

I did notice that they'd left the cycling world as well. Not a huge surprise.

And speed skating. Some really got into serious trouble finding a new sponsor.
