Jaguar label Lauda move as "pure speculation"

JAGUAR RACING said on Tuesday that rumors claiming former world champion Niki Lauda is to join the team are "pure speculation".

Reports have suggested that Lauda has been offered the chance to join the Milton Keynes-based team in a management role but Jaguar officials have slammed the rumors.

Austrian Lauda resigned from his role as chairman of Lauda Air in November, 15 years after he founded the company, but is currently waiting on an offer to join the board of Austrian Airlines.
