That seems to be the story for F1's first Russian driver... His state sponsorship makes up 7% of the entire Renault team budget.
Can they afford to fire him if he's useless? I don't think so.
What do we think of 'cash for seats' in F1?
I have €15m. Can I please race in F1?

It is still pretty much the norm for smaller teams. Even if they are paying a driver a salary he will still be expected to bring £x M in personal sponsorship. It is only the biggest teams where this is not the case.
