Which company sponsored the infamous "Pink Pig" Porsche 917-20 but refused to have their logo on it?

If they were so worried about their image, why did they later sponsor David Jason to drive the Martini Capri 3100 RS?

Maybe the decision fell after a couple of too much of their drinks. How on earth could they swith to the pink pig design. No way they were sober at that time. Grin
