    Stupid headline makes it sound like he sold his stake @ £1bn. The team was valued at 1bn, the shares sold were a minority fraction of shares and Stroll retains both majority ownership and control.

      I think the use of valuation at the end helps salvage the meaning a little. Considering titles are supposed to be as short as possible, this was a good attempt

        “Owner sells stake at valuation” can easily be “owner sells partial/minority/percentage of stake at valuation” they know what they were doing.

        The title is intentionally misleading instead of being short and accurate

    Nothing to see here, just Papa Stroll liquidating some assets to keep building/fixing cars and doing PR band-aids for Baby Stroll.
