Full Tilt Poker and Virgin Racing Team have signed a sponsor deal. The deal was announced just before the Spanish Grand Prix.
Full Tilt’s Chris “Jesus” Ferguson commented: “The co-operation between Full Tilt Poker.net and Virgin Racing has resulted from hard work”. By this he referred to the negotiations that have been going on since November.

According to these pictures Full Tilt.net will get visibility, but the .net-ending is missing from Timo Glock’s helmet logo. The Full Tilt logos are visible also in Lucas di Grassi’s car and accessories as well as in other advertising elements of Virgin Racing Team, like on their web page.
Formula 1 seems to be favoured by big poker sites since only a couple of weeks ago PartyPoker took a young F1-driver to its team.
