Your mistake equals my news… I received the following email this morning for some reason and thought I would share for those sports/telecom fans.
Names have been blocked to prevent any bad sh!t coming my way too quickly. From: X.X@orange.co.uk Date: Wed Oct 23, 2002 7:53:32 AM America/New_York To: X.X@allsport.ch Cc: X.X@psiad.com, Xx@mediaplanning.co.uk Subject: F1 Circuit Advertising Message from X X to X X Dear X Thanks for your note of October 22nd. I completely understand your desire to have an agreement such as the one attached to your note. Having said that, I am reluctant to pass over the rights at this early stage because I wish PSI to be centrally involved in any ensueing negotiations. I would much prefer for you to “sound out” the market place and for us to have a meeting with PSI about our strategic approach when you are in a position to bring us up to date with any level of interest, however informal this might be. I hope you understand, I am not being over cautious, just wishing to maintain a level of control over what is after all a very significant amount of money. Kind regards X X
