Bernie Ecclestone has not been at Spa-Francorchamps this weekend because he is in Rome preparing for the wedding of his daughter Petra.
22-year-old Ecclestone, the youngest of the F1 chief executive’s two daughters, will marry British entrepreneur James Stunt at the 15th century Odescalchi castle, the lavish scene of Tom Cruise’s wedding in 2006.
80-year-old Briton Ecclestone is reportedly footing the more than $2 million bill, with Eric Clapton touted to play the first song before the Black Eyed Peas take over.
