I was about to ask why Coulthard wasn't on the list, but of course he's over 30 now, so suddenly he'd need a lot more money to feature on the main list rather than the "youth" one...

Schumacher doesn't, so he's not on the list. I think if they own property in the UK or work here then they’re counted. Schumacher doesn’t, so he’s not on the list.

Does he have to register for tax purposes in order to own QPR or something? I'm not au fait with foreign ownership rules in the UK.

I could be wrong, of course, but I'm sure even with that dodgy accent, that Flavio isn't from Bradford... Julian, I think you’ll notice that there’s actually quite a few non-brits on the list….

He only wanted to race so he could pull more easily in Monte Carlo. Alex, Irvine was a property developer before being in racing…. or during.  That is why he is loaded.
