Boss plays down Sachsenring rumours
Aug.1 - Reports that the Sachsenring could be in the running to rescue the German GP for 2017 have been played down.
Germany's Auto Bild reported at Hockenheim that the well-known MotoGP venue has been targeted by Bernie Ecclestone as a potential venue to take over from struggling Hockenheim and the Nurburgring -- perhaps with a reduced fee.
But track chief Ruben Zeltner told Leipziger Volkszeitung newspaper: "The track is not suitable for it (formula one)."
He said the Sachsenring would need millions in renovations, so "Who should bear this risk?" he added.
