F1 stuff is always so crazy.
In 2018, Vijay Mallya, accused of fraud and defaulting on loans, could not afford to continue to run Force India, and sold it to Lawrence Stroll.
Therefore Williams lost the Stroll money and had to turn to Rokit as a new title sponsor. Rokit already had a shady reputation among fans because they had such a Rich Energy energy of "nobody buys their stuff, are they able to afford this?"
And then Rokit bailed, not paying any money in 2020. Which led to Claire selling the team because, as she says, there was no money left.
