The most successful property liquidation auction in the country before this deal was for a property in Knysna‚ which fetched R120m more than a decade ago.

Porsche SA said the track would be used for racing events‚ the details of which would be released at a later stage.

Sporting events have been hosted at the race track for 53 years‚ including Formula One‚ the Superbike World Championship and the A1 Grand Prix.
