The brand’s logo appears on tracks, and advertising banners will be installed in the corners.
Bernie Ecclestone, a head of Formula 1 management, said on this occasion: "Without a doubt, Rolex is a priority partner for such a global event like Formula 1. The prestige of Rolex, perfection of the watches, as well as passion and longstanding commitment to motorsport - all this guarantees a true confidence in the company. This long-awaited collaboration is of great interest to many in Formula 1, and rightly so, that it can cause such excitement. Rolex has great sporting heritage, so its presence in F1 is absolutely justified. "
