Qatar denies Silverstone lease reports
There have been no negociations
Reports that Qatar is the likely buyer of the $400m lease of British grand prix venue Silverstone have been denied.
A British newspaper this week said the Arab emirate’s sovereign wealth fund is in exclusive talks for the 150-year lease with track owner The British Racing Drivers’ Club.
But the Gulf Times said the Qatar Investment Authority rejected the "authenticity of press reports ... that it is a close to a deal" over Silverstone.
And an official source told the Qatar News Agency that there are "no relevant negotiations, currently nor in the past, in this respect".
