If nothing else, Mark did say that the company LiDAR supplied the car, but that's it, they had no say in the test, didn't give him any money, apparently they did put the video up on their site for a bit, but took it down either because it looked bad given the backlash, or because Mark told them to take it down as it did go against their agreement.

Of course he could have lied about the spo sponsorship, but he said he's fine with a lawsuit, so that would be a bold strategy.
