Palmer hopes that Silverstone owners, British Racing Drivers' Club(BRDC) will open bidding for his company, which is one of largest circuit operator in UK.

Palmer commented on this issue just weeks after Jaguar Land Rover hit a setback, JLR could not come to an agreement with Porsche, and the deal is stalled. With the two rival manufacturers facing problems, MSV will not face such problems as it does not make cars.

MSV also has a vast experience in operating circuits. It currently operates British circuits such as, Oulton Park and Brands Hatch, and the firm is also building a automotive complex in France. MSV's strong financial stability will also be a plus point in this matter.
