Little update, I think a new counter-bug has emerged.

Some sponsor slots are already filled but still able to be negociated (ie, Talk Alot has all its S11 spots filled and only one S12 and S13 free; but contract talks still open up at S11-S13. It will surely fail?

If it doesn't (and I am yet to try just yet) then will it start allowing more than the dedicated three slots?

Looking across others, this seems to be happening across many different sponsors.

It will fail for only the S11 option. The system looks at each season and whether it can effectively sponsor then, and if not that season is cancelled.

Thank you for clarification Frank. So to confirm, it will auto fill the later available slots; and leave the other vacant in which to find a single season sponsor elsewhere?

Correct, that's how it should work.

I signed Talk Alot for this (and upcoming) seasons this morning. Does that mean that it sponsors 4 teams this season? Because I have it now.

Some teams dropped the sponsor don't forget to make it available (like me, I lost some of mine by missing a race) yet still showed on the display.

Frank said this bug was fixed, so essentially you've probably taken the place of the guy that lost it.

And vice versa, some of my old deals were taken by other teams in my old spot.

Confirmation from me also that the sponsor glitch I reported seems to have worked and I have signed deals whereby I couldn't before :)

Thanks Frank!
