New Sauber driver Sergio Perez has denied his major sponsor Telmex is planning to buy a controlling stake in the team.
The telecommunications business will sponsor Sauber next year – when Mexican Perez will line up alongside Kamui Kobayashi – and the company’s figurehead Carlos Slim – the richest man in the world – has been seen at several grand prix recently.
But Peter Sauber earlier this month denied he is considering selling his team, and Slim said the deal is a "commercial alliance" rather than a precursor to a greater involvement.
When told that the rumours about Telmex buying Sauber still exist, Perez said: "No, that's not true. Telmex is entering as a sponsor and nothing more."
