110: Liberty Media Buys Out Dorna Sports, What Happens Next?

The motorsport world has been digesting one of the biggest announcements of the year on Monday after Formula 1 owner Liberty Media announced its acquisition of MotoGP.

The American media giant announced on Monday 1 April that it had purchased majority shares in Dorna Sports from Bridgepoint Capital for €4.2 billion.
