Lola under the hammer

LONDON: One of the world's biggest racing car constructors, Lola Cars, has been placed in the hands of company administrators.

Lola has been dragged down by the failure of its short-lived Formula One team but owner Eric Broadley is confident Lola will not go under.

"The company is strong (but) we do have a capital problem," he said.
