Canadian Billionaire Lawrence Stroll To Invest In F1 Team, Decision Between Sauber, Lotus

Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll "will invest in F1," according to Roger Benoit of BLICK. The only remaining question is "what team will receive money." Stroll "has been in negotiations with Sauber and Lotus." Stroll's most important requirement is that his 16-year-old son Lance "will receive a driver seat in either team." Former Renault boss Flavio Briatore and F1 CEO Bernie Ecclestone "advise Stroll to invest in Lotus." Former F1 driver Gerhard Berger "sees Sauber as the better investment." Stroll "himself knows that he would have more input at Sauber in terms terms of reorganizing the team and even regarding driver selection for '15." Sauber "is also in talks with a businessman from Singapore." Stroll "is expected to make a decision by the end of October" (BLICK, 9/20).
