No, it depends on the prestige of the Sponsor position on the car. Look at "View Sponsors" and check where it was placed. Nose Cone is only 10% (half a star) Prestige and will only net you around 200k even with a 5 star Sponsor. Side Pods (Side) are the big one, and should get you around 2,2milllion.
You cant. At first it's just important that you get all the slots filled. Once that has happened, then you can start to adjust it over time.
For example, if you have a sponsor making you an offer, but you have no empty slots, cancel the highest prestige, lowest wealth sponsor. That way, when you go back to the Negotiation screen, they'll be offering you their money for the spot you just made available. You dont have to cancel, you can just wait until the 10 race agreement has run out. Its up to you.
That way you can pick and choose where your sponsors go. If you have a slot available, you dont get a choice. You can just leave that sponsor at making you an offer, though, whilst you get another sponsor to fill that spot... but then you're wasting 3 races of income and you're eventually going to want 5 star sponsors everywhere anyway.

That's kinda how it works for everyone. Now you know, anyway, you can tailor it to suit your needs.
Anyway, having the best chassis doesn't mean they're going to win. Check out Memphisto and I. His car tore mine to shreds yet somehow i finished ahead of him in the league thanks to my drivers.

This game is to driver dependant, where private leagues are concerned. Basically its just a lottery whoever clicked on the best driver 1st when you make a league is laughing.
The tech depts and facilities should have a big impact at the moment it seems they are just to make it look more in depth that it ever is.

yeah i dont bother with private leagues.. i dont have time to camp for good drivers.
Acidhell, If its looking like you cant win the league, then dont bother paying for a chasis, just spend the season saving money and developing your own chasis... Im just starting my 3rd full season, and mine is almost ferrenzi standard.
The key is managing finance in this game. I was lucky enough to win the league in my 1st full season and got access to the 5* sponsors early. Spent the 2nd season saving money and just developing my car. My engine is better than ferrenzi, and the chasis is prob 3-4 races from being at ferrenzi level.

cancel the deal mate, get a five star onboard and cancel the deal on the 1 star slots, next race 5 star will offer you more money, means being without a sponsor for a race if you time it right, however worth it in the long run
oh and
been promoted a league higher than dampcat although he won the drivers and constructors and is higher ranked overall (go figure) and some of the guys have 7+ seasons im going to get mullared all season long.
his is true, i had a 100% stable chasis and 80 BHP more than Dampcat, yet his driver superiority (and my occasional using of my own crap chassis) meant he won.
Drivers are very very important i feel.

EDIT Ferrenzi chassis tip : Develop monocoque to 60/60/52/58 use tha with the rest of the ferrenzi chassis and it will jump from 91% stable to 100% and sav e a kilo in weight
because your developing some more than others, stable chassis have components close together in overall percentage
so i develop all the same basically or as near as, 50/50/50/48 or something, but overall thats 198. if all yer other parts are 198 total although the spread can be slightly different then it should be stable.
the other thing o take into account is reliability which = (Reliability X 3)/(Grip + Aero + Weight) = Chance of retirement (0.5 bad, 1 stable).
so if you are devloping something a its above 1 its almost wasted devlopment
anything from 80% up or 0.8 would be acceptable to me
