The famous Internet brand Google could soon be seen on the painted carbon bodywork of a formula one car.
The company's co-founder Larry Page, one of the world's richest billionaires, was a guest of McLaren title sponsor Vodafone at last weekend's Monaco grand prix.
Interestingly, the 36-year-old American is a friend of Sir Richard Branson, the British billionaire who has been considering ramping up his Virgin backing of the dominant Brawn team.
Page was married on Branson's own Caribbean island, and the pair have also been linked in various business ventures.
Brawn is not the only team interested in Google sponsorship, however; every major outfit on the grid is believed to have put out the feelers as to how serious Page's interest is.
