F1 owner Liberty Media closes the door on an offer to allow teams to buy into the sport.

Formula 1 owner Liberty Media has closed the door on an offer to allow teams to buy into the sport.

In January, the company's president Greg Maffei said that $400m (£307m) in shares had been set aside because it is "important to offer the teams the chance to invest in F1 and further align our interests".

However, a top team source said that the offer was "not very attractive" without voting rights, and Liberty Media has now confirmed that no team took up the opportunity.

"While the window for this particular investment opportunity has passed, we are pleased with the collaborative discussions we are having with the teams," said F1 CEO Chase Carey.

"These discussions will take time, but we appreciate their receptivity towards further aligning our incentives for the long term benefit of the sport."

The 2017 championship continues on Sunday with the Hungarian Grand Prix.
