The Liberty Media takeover of Formula One was always going to be a slow process. With figures in the billions, it is always wise to proceed with caution. But with last weeks news that Liberty had agreed a $1.55 billion third-party investment deal, the financial arrangements are firming up and Chase Carey called the news a significant step.Taking a look at some of Libertys other business interests, there is real potential to use existing properties to cross-pollinate (so to speak) with Formula One and create healthier profits for both the sport itself and also for the other Liberty businesses involved.The Liberty Media Corporation has three arms: the Liberty Braves Group, the Liberty Media Group and the Liberty SiriusXM Group. The three tracking stock groups are split across the fields of media, communications, and entertainment, and include several business that -- in one way or another -- tie into F1, either directly or through the lifestyle elements surrounding F1 and which help keep the high-end ticket sales coming in.The F1 stake is held by the Liberty Media Group, which also happens to hold stakes of less than one percent each of Viacom, Time Inc., and TimeWarner. While those stakes are small, the potential for symbiotic relationships with F1 can be found in each brand. Time Inc.s many properties include Sports Illustrated, for example, and F1 coverage in the popular magazine could help boost interest in the sport in the United States.Time Warner offers opportunities to promote F1 to existing subscribers, hopefully arousing a wider curiosity in the sport among users of their cable networks, while the company could get a reciprocal boost from F1 fans if, in time, their link to the sports owners allows them preferential access to content and promotional materials. Promotional materials that could easily be produced by Viacom, a cross-platform content creator with a global reputation.Whereas CVCs list of other interests involved Samsonite suitcases, the sports incoming owners have at least grouped their F1 interest with related businesses, many of which can be cross-fertilised to improve the growth prospects of all.It is with the LMGs 34 percent stake in Live Nation that things have the potential to get seriously interesting. Whether or not youve heard of Live Nation, odds are that you have used their services in one way or another -- as the worlds largest live entertainment company, Live Nation will have promoted the concerts youve attended, managed the artists youve gone to see, and (through their Ticketmaster division, or one of their secondary ticketing arms) sold you the tickets you bought to get in.As a company, Live Nation have been able to strengthen their offering and improve their profits by controlling as many aspects of the entertainment business as possible, making money from performer, consumer, and venue alike. They have also been discussed -- in hushed whispers -- as the future official entertainment partner of Formula One, selling tickets and working with teams and sponsors alike to put together the razzle-dazzle year-round global promotion of the sport we have all been crying out for.In 2015, Live Nation reported $7.2 billion in revenues. It was their fifth successive year of record-breaking growth and revenues, Billboard reported, and represented record 12 percent growth in global gross transaction value [GVT] for a total GVT of $25 billion.If Live Nation does take over the ticket sales and promotion for grands prix around the world, it mean a significant change to the way F1 works.Under the current system, circuits are essentially responsible for promoting their events, and for trying to get as many people through the door -- for as high a price as can be reasonably charged -- in order to try and get back some of the money theyve paid for the privilege of hosting Formula One. Its not a brilliantly successful model from the circuits perspective, whatever the positive impact on FOMs finances...But if Live Nation take over global ticket sales, and circuits sell only those tickets still remaining when time comes to open the gates for the race weekend, new arrangements will have to be drawn up to ensure that circuits are still able to cover some of their costs, as is the case now. Either hosting fees will have to come down, or deals will have to be done regarding shares of on-site advertising revenues (or regional ticket sales, or similar), to ensure that circuits still have a reason to put on an F1 grand prix.At present its all speculation, but now that the purchase process is moving ahead once more, we are standing on the edge of interesting times -- theres a lot of change ahead.

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- Patrick Reed had a crystal trophy, a clear shot at the richest payoff in golf and a spot on the Ryder Cup team.All he could offer Rickie Fowler was best wishes to join him at Hazeltine.Reed picked up two victories Sunday at The Barclays. He rallied from an early two-shot deficit to win the FedEx Cup playoff opener and assure himself a clear shot at the $10 million bonus. And he secured a spot on the U.S. team at Hazeltine that will try to win back the Ryder Cup.Everyones been talking about the Ryder Cup, been talking about, `Oh, youre in the eighth spot and youre on the bubble and all that, Reed said after his one-shot victory. If you go and win, it takes care of everything else. ... It takes care of everything.The way Fowler finished only leads to two weeks of uncertainty.Fowler needed only to finish alone in third place, which was the farthest from his mind as he battled Reed at Bethpage Black.I wasnt trying to get a decent finish, Fowler said. I was trying to win.Two shots behind with four holes to play -- and two shots clear of third place -- Fowler missed a 4-foot par putt on the 15th hole and made double bogey on the next hole. His late meltdown sent him to a 74, a tie for seventh and kept him off the Ryder Cup team.Reed built a big enough lead that a few sloppy mistakes over the final hour didnt matter. He made bogey on the final hole for a 1-under 70 and a one-shot victory over Sean OHair and Emiliano Grillo.Fowler still could have made the Ryder Cup team with a birdie on the 18th hole. He missed another fairway and took bogey. It was the fourth time Fowler has failed to convert a 54-hole lead on the PGA Tour, though he remained optimistic.He just told me, `Hey, Im going to go get my work done.

That moved him all the way up to No. 15, assuring two more playoff events and giving OHair a good shot at staying in the top 30 who qualify for the finale at the Tour Championship.Grillo birdied the final hole for a 69 and moved to No. 6.Defending champion Jason Day struggled all week with his accuracy and had to settle for a 69, tying for fourth with Gary Woodland (69) and Adam Scott (71).Reed had gone 55 tournaments worldwide since starting 2015 with a victory at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions. A bogey on the par-3 third hole put him two shots behind Fowler, but not for long. Reed made three birdies on the next four holes to tie for the lead.Even so, Reed could sense another tournament slipped away. Just seven holes into the final round, he already had missed four putts from 10 feet or closer and began to think back to other lost opportunities that kept him from winning.Thats when his caddie, brother-in-law Kessler Karain, told him to let it go and look ahead. A pair of tough par saves and a birdie at No. 12 gave Reed a two-shot lead, and he was on his way.Fowler missed the 11th fairway and ended his streak of 55 consecutive holes without a bogey, losing the lead in the process. Reed holed a 12-foot birdie putt on the next hole for a two-shot lead, and Fowler never got any closer.Sung Kang matched the course record with a 64 to move from No. 122 to No. 88.
