Which is why I don't understand why they don't take this title deal.
They can't afford anything gooD with out a huge investment which they don't want to do. Yet they say they want to be in Motor sports.....
This is practically free.
Vijay Mallya does not own the shares in the team anymore; his major share is now owned by Diageo, may be he still has some.
He still represents the team and the other share holders, Sahara and Mol.
Not sure how they can get him out. At the moment the team is self sustaining.
Not sure how the team name can change now.
