Coke takes the lead in a table containing a mixture of international and Chinese brands. Dairy producer Yili is in second place, followed by Lenovo and China Mobile. The next non-Chinese brands, adidas and McDonald’s, come in at fifth and sixth place, just ahead of Bank of China in seventh - a list unchanged since the previous tally of sponsor performances in January 2008.
