Infiniti advertizing

Anyone else notice during the Australian Grand Prix that the Red Bull cars and driver had the Mt. Fuji emblem and the Infiniti name all over them? According to Autoweek mag, there are no Infiniti parts or anything else on the cars. They just gave them a boatload of money for advertising. Must work as RedBull came in 1st and 3rd(4th)?

Infiniti secures F1 Red Bull team tie-up
Luxury car brand Infiniti has become the lead sponsor of Red Bull Racing, Formula One's reigning world champion team, as it looks to boost brand awareness in Europe.

There's no RedBull parts either.

They are a technical partner too, they are working with the team to develop the KERS system. Didn't think about it till now but Red Bull didn't use their KERS in Australia, doh...

I'd like to pick up one of the caps but its $40 + shipping with the exchange rate.

I believe Infiniti supplied the engines for the IRL series a ways back..
there must be a warehouse full of them somewhere
