Best formula 1 sponsors

Alpine wins 77% of its duels and tops the GP EXPLORER sponsor ranking ahead of NordVPN.

Alpine dominates with 1383 ELO points, but the 76-point gap separating it from NordVPN at rank 2 reveals a clear divide at the top. Cupra follows in third with 1272 points, while Rhinoshield at rank 4 posts a solid 56% win rate despite sitting 27 points behind. The bottom of the ranking tells a different story: Fruitz languishes at rank 11 with just 1054 ELO points and a 35% win rate, showing that not all sponsor partnerships resonate equally with this community. The gap between Alpine and Fruitz spans 329 points, underscoring the wide range of opinions on who backs GP EXPLORER best.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
