LONDON (Reuters) - Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll, who is investing in carmaker Aston Martin , sees the opportunity to share Formula One technology with the firm's range of road cars, he said on Wednesday.

"I feel Aston has really missed having a mid-engine programme, having that DNA in their racing, in their blood and now with the opportunity of returning to a works Formula One team for 2021 to be able to share technology from our Formula One team with our road car projects," he said.
