U.S. motor racing entrepreneur Michael Andretti said on Thursday that ‘control issues’ had led to the collapse of takeover talks with the owners of Sauber, who run the Alfa Romeo Formula One team.
Andretti— former IndyCar champion, F1 racer, and son of 1978 Formula One world champion Mario—had been in advanced talks with Sauber ahead of last month’s U.S. Grand Prix in Austin.
