Which car manufacturer is involved in the most different types of factory supported motorsport?

I'm sure that in the late 80's/ early 90's when I first became interested in motorsport it was Ford. Are they still as involved or has one of the Japanese manufacturers overtaken them?

Any ideas from the PH motorsport geeks?

Ford is a good bet.

How about Renault?

I'm not going to try to list all the stuff they've either been invloved in or are currently involved in from touring cars to WRC to F1 to loads of lesser single-seat formulae as manufacturer and/or engine supplier, but I don't think any other manufacturer can boast hosting entire race weekends by themselves for themselves...
