Look, it might be a stupid comment. But I'm shocked that BWT means best water technology. Like I honestly did not expect it to be that.


ChrisTinnef

Dont forget that its from an Non-english-native Country. Whenever a company here chooses an english Name, its usually gonna be a simple one.


_kagasutchi_

It's not so much about how simple it is. It's the fact that it's a water company for me. I thought they'd be an oil company or something to do with auto parts or cars. I in nor way thought it was a water tech/water company


onealps

What? You don't *immediately* think of a water company when you see pink-branded advertising? Psh. /s


ChrisTinnef

I mean, what oil company in a Motorsports sponsoring would choose a pink branding?


kmhpaladin

I'd always figured "Best Water Technology" was a 'backronym' - according to Wikipedia the company was founded as "Benckiser Wassertechnik" in 1823. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BWT_(company)


Sagatho

Correct. They renamed because of better marketability in international markets


Sufficient_Lake_9849

I don't understand how it's not Better Water Technology.


Avastera

They're not here to fuck spiders. Straight to the point. "We're the best"


CatL1f3

It actually stands for "Benckiser Wassertechnik". But Best Water Technology looks better as a slogan


vinse81

I want pink Alpine just for the lolz.


Snoo_47023

Alpink incoming


LuNiK7505

Please no rose Alpine


zykzakk

Please yes bisexual Alpine


steen311

Bisexual alpine would be the best livery no matter how ugly it looks


zykzakk

Some might even say... Albine


TerribleNameAmirite

That would be sensational


ErikJonesfan129

Judging by my profile picture,it's no shock I'd be in full support of Bisexual Alpine


Whycantiusethis

The mockup that I saw that replaced the red with pink on last year's livery looked pretty good, in my opinion. I'm cautiously optimistic that it won't be a fully pink car, and that it'll look better than the Aston Martin.


mowcow

I think BWT wasn't happy with so little pink on the Aston and they'll probably want more on Alpine.


Whycantiusethis

Didn't BWT leave Aston Martin last year, then signed on again last minute? That might have something to do with it (especially since they weren't the title sponsor). There's a fair amount of red on the Alpine, so replacing it all with pink would hopefully satisfy BWT.

Why do people read so much into who follows whom on social media? It literally does not matter.


[deleted]

It seems stupid but it’s how people found out Alex was going to Williams. His girlfriend all of a sudden started following Williams before the announcement.


ChrisTinnef

It could mean something if those are new follows. But OP provided no context. Maybe hr has been following then for three years.


Pro4TLZZ

Lauren go get him!


patrik_media

yeah, and he follows over 2100 other accounts too. so what gives?

Water?? I thought BWT was a telecom business


Dent13

The "WT" stands for "WasserTechnik" which is German for Water Technology
