AIGO SUPPORTS CHENG CONF FU's CAREER

As a proud sponsor of the McLaren-Mercedes Formula One team, AIGO is proud to announce its support for the finest Chinese driver, Cheng Cong Fu. AIGO has had its marketing policies in motorsports for some time now, recently being the first Chinese firm to sponsor a Formula One team. The electronics manufacturer has great reputation around the world for its fine products and using all the cutting edge technology.

As a leading Chinese technological company that has taken the world by storm, it feels that it is their responsibility to give back to the Chinese motorsport community by sponsoring Chinese drivers with great potential so that they could compete at a global level and eventually in Formula One. One such driver is Cheng Cong Fu. Frankie has already made his mark in the global motorsport arena and currently races for Team China in the hugely popular A1 Grand Prix racing series. He is seen by many as the top Chinese driver of his time and the best shot for a Chinese driver in Formula One. This partnership is a very important one that will help propel Frankie to Formula One and for a larger Chinese presence in the sport.

The president of AIGO Mr. Feng Jun, "We have been following the progress of Frankie Cheng since his days in karting and we are very proud to see how far he has come. This season, he has shown great potential in the British Formula 3 series and has also been the pride of his nation in the A1 Grand Prix. We are all very proud of Frankie and we are very pleased to be involved with his future ambitions in Formula One. As a company, we already have presence in Formula One by sponsoring a top team such as McLaren. We hope that in the future this could lead to more exciting prospects for the company. Formula One needs a Chinese driver and we feel that Frankie is by far the best candidate for the job."

When Frankie was asked how he feels about his new sponsor, this is what he had to say: "I am very proud to have a firm such as AIGO to support my racing ambitions. It is like a dream come true because I feel that this partnership makes the dream of a Chinese driver in Formula One much more of a reality. I would like that thank AIGO for their support and by giving me this great opportunity to show what I am capable of. I will do my best to represent AIGO and China as a brand ambassador around the world."
