”Alfa Romeo F1 is set to announce a new sponsorship deal with Floki Inu (FLOKI), a Dog-themed cryptocurrency, in the coming days. Floki Inu logos can be seen on the rear wing of the new Alfa Romeo F1 car,” they tweeted.

The sponsorship deal would be huge for FLOKI as millions of race enthusiasts can spot the meme-crypto during the game.

Alfa Romeo’s Antonio Giovinazzi confirmed in December 2021 that he is leaving Formula 1 racing to debut in Formula E. However, Guanyu Zhou replaced Giovinazzi to become China’s first F1 driver and is now team-mate to Alfa Romeo’s Valtteri Bottas. Zhou had a remarkable run in Formula 2 and is poised to repeat his feat in F1.

The 22-year-old Zhou has driven in the F2 series for the last three seasons. He won four races and three of the victories coming this year. High hopes are on Zhou to mirror his F2 success in the upcoming F1 races in Bahrain. The race is scheduled to take place in March 2022.

“I dreamt from a young age of climbing as high as I can in a sport that I am passionate about and now the dream has come true. To be the first-ever Chinese driver in Formula 1 is a breakthrough for Chinese motorsport history,” said Zhou.

“Great performance from the team, particularly given the absences of Osimhen and Anguissa. They played the best football I have seen in Serie A this season. Mertens has such brilliant technique he could probably play at the top for at least another 5 years. I hope he stays at Napoli for the rest of his career,” said a fan on YouTube.

The match was held in November 2021 and reminded crypto investors that the market has indeed come a long way. At press time, Floki Inu was trading at $0.00004094 and is down -2.8% in the 24-hours day trade.
