Looks like it was an extra mechanism to advertise the NASCAR stuff - but only for those who had the series open. I suspect it was probably not as useful as being able to run the race with bonus itself - but at least it only overlaid the R$ stuff (which isn't currently an issue for me, and for most people isn't an issue in the long run).

I maxed out the sponsors last night and so was back to the normal table today - was more relieved that it let me get day 4 (given failure of +20% fame to work yesterday) so I didn't double check it exactly - but I think it is possible I only got R$10K (although maybe I did get R$15K - I'll have to check tomorrow).
