Mercedes to buy McLaren
This story or rumor has appeared on and off for a while. Mercedes Benz (DaimlerChrysler) owns 40% of McLaren in a 1999 deal. Ojjej and Dennis each own 30%, and are prohibited from selling independently. With McLaren's less than stellar performance with the company engines, there are noises in the system that Mercedes wants to buy the outstanding 60% of McLaren. As RD approaches 60, it could be a time for him to cash-out and retire.
