‘Control issues’ killed Sauber deal - Andretti

However, after those talks slowed in the weeks prior to the United States Grand Prix — leading to the cancellation of planned meetings in Austin — the deal was called off altogether, and Andretti says it proved not to be the right opportunity for him.
