FORMER Renault boss Flavio Briatore, 70, has been rushed to hospital and is said to be in “serious” condition suffering from complications caused by coronavirus. Briatore’s illness follows his Billionaire club being shut down following a spate of positive coronavirus tests seemingly stemming from the Porto Cervo hotspot. Briatore – who owned QPR between 2007 and 2010 – saw his Billionaire club closed following an outbreak of the killer virus. Nightclubs are considered to be promoting a second wave of coronavirus in Italy. And with clubs all now on lockdown, Briatore took to Facebook earlier this week to share his disappointment.
