“Lost”? Advertising itself does not make any profit at all. It’s about promoting the brand and making money from selling the product. Ask Red Bull for details. They spend loads of money (including hosting their own GP) to promote canned soda.

Because the German car brand is not interested in paying the fees of a German GP to promote “quality made in Germany”.
