NEW DELHI – One of the chief organisers of the inaugural Indian Grand Prix has resigned barely nine months before the country hosts the Formula One race, the promoters said on Monday,
Mark Hughes, a former number two at the Bahrain circuit, who was a key figure in building the Indian facility over the past 12 months, left his post a month ago “due to personal reasons”, the promoters said.
“Mark Hughes is no longer working with us. He left due to his own personal reasons,” Sameer Kumar, a spokesman for the promoters, the Jaypee group, told AFP.
