For details on how the top 50 Brands were ranked, covering data gathered from 1st August 2019 to 1st August 2020, Hookit explained the methodology in detail.
- Overall, motorsports generated US$950 million worth of sponsorship value, 14 per cent of the total from all sports. The only sport that contributed a higher percentage of value was soccer at 42 per cent (US$2.9 billion).
- More than 2,500 motorsports entities contributed to this value, including series, teams, drivers, and riders. The average value per promoter within motorsports was US$350,000, higher than the average among all sports of US$240,000.
- Every brand except one in the top 20 of the Top 50 Most Marketed Brands is heavily invested in sponsorships within motorsports and/or soccer.
- The Top 50 Most Marketed Brands received US$430 million in value from motorsports. Thus, nearly 43 per cent of value generated by all motorsports properties was generated for a top 50 brand.
