I made this one up, and no-one noticed. 
Speaking exclusively to the italian magazine "Ciao Inganna" about Formula1, Flavio Briatore was also asked about his involvement with the English football club QPR. "Football has always been a lifelong passion of mine, and the opportunity to make a significant impact in the English Premier league was too good to pass by. I live very close to the club, and when I retire from motor racing, all my energies will be invoved into making QPR a formidable force in world football. We have the backing, and we will make it happen, there is no doubt about that."
When asked about world recession and its effect on his businesses, he admitted, "Yes, I have been affected too, but it will not stop me from following my dreams. The fans(QPR) are affected by it too, and we are monitoring very closely the support for the club. We all have to move in the same direction together. When we took over the club, we wanted the fans to take part in the investment as well. If ticket sales for next season are low, then we will act immediately to help them. In hindsight, asking the fans to become investors as well, was a step too fast too soon.
We want the club to be a happy club for everyone involved, we want full capacity every time we play. If it means reducing prices even more, then we will do it, we are a positive club."
