On google news search there are two news storys about Hyundai may be buying Jaguar racing team from Ford. REDBULL are interested but sources say Ford may sell to a rival company.

Hmmm...That wouldn't surprise me. Hyundai in F1? Why not.
Frankly, I personally think Hyundai shouldn't stop there. I think they should buy the entire Jaguar/Land Rover/Aston Martin kit'n'caboodle from Ford. Ford's been losing money on their British divisions, but I think there's a lot of potential profit still left in them. Better still, for Hyundai, it would give them the luxury division they so desperately crave--not to mention some technical know-how they don't have that would be useful, such as developing cars completely from aluminum.
Crazy? Maybe, but Ford has to do something with its British PAG unit, and there's only one company in the world with the money AND the interest to buy the brands from them--and that's Hyundai.
