Shnaider undecided on Midland future

Shnaider has been considering an offer of 100 million Euro from Michiel Mol, the founder of Dutch Internet company Lost Boys, to take over the Silverstone-based outfit.

And although autosport.com understands that due diligence on the Midland team was completed on Thursday, pointing towards a sale taking place, Shnaider has made it clear that he does not know whether he definitely wants to sell.

"I have not made a decision yet," he told autosport.com at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. "One day I will wake up and maybe then I will make a decision. I am very indecisive about things that I am passionate about.

"I am thinking about this offer all the time, but it is difficult to decide. The offer is very good. If it was a bad offer then I would not even think about it."

Shnaider said he was not aware of any pressure from Mol to make a swift decision about his future plans.

"You have to ask Mr. Mol about that," he said. "I don't know what Mr. Mol is thinking. I don't know what I am thinking never mind what Mr. Mol is thinking."

When asked why, if he was passionate about his team, he was even thinking of selling, Shnaider said: "The list is too long to say all the pros and cons, but for everything there are pros and cons and they are very close today. That is why I haven't decided yet.

"If one was outweighing the other it would be easy. Passion is one thing and financial things are another thing. It is very hard to decide. One day I will wake up and you will see on the car, there will be sold or not sold."
