The flamboyant businessman, currently fighting a high-profile extradition request made by India, speaks instead of 'enjoying the fruits' of his labours on track and planning high-flying Force India's next decade. 

 Horse racing at Royal Ascot, the Wimbledon tennis championships and Champions Trophy cricket have all been on his social diary, along with Wednesday's Formula One promotional event in London.

 He is also, despite the court appearances and travel restrictions, still living the good life and enjoying a summer of sport. "There's nothing to miss," the 61-year-old told news agency Reuters at the British Grand Prix when asked if he missed India. "All my immediate family is either in England or the US. Nobody in India at all. As far as my step-siblings are concerned, they are all UK citizens. 

So there's nothing family-wise to miss." Until the issue is resolved, Mr Mallya cannot leave Britain but he said that was no hardship, even if Silverstone is likely to be his first and last appearance in the Formula One paddock this year.
