(f) If necessary to enter into a lease under subsection (a):

(1) the commission may lease structures and capital improvements located within a motorsports investment district from the owner or owners of the qualified motorsports facility and sublease all or any part of such structures and capital improvements to the authority for a nominal rent; and
