HRT cars sold to Spanish recycling firm and Pirelli

LONDON (Reuters) - A Spanish auto breaker and parts recycler has bought five cars raced by the defunct HRT Formula One team while another chassis has gone to tyremaker Pirelli, the businessman who acquired them said on Friday.

Teo Martin, owner of the Madrid-based auto-recycling company that bears his name, told Reuters by telephone that he had bought most of the material assets of the failed Spanish-based team.
