F1 Owner revealed in the Epstein Files

March 16, 2026 Aksel Kryhlmand

A newly released trove of documents connected to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is drawing attention across several industries, including professional sports. The material, published by the U.S. Department of Justice, contains more than three million records, including emails, receipts, and notes linked to Epstein’s network.

The files reference several well known figures in the sports world. In many cases, the individuals are mentioned in correspondence rather than shown communicating directly with Epstein.

According to Front Office Sports journalist Margaret Fleming, the records include references to Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll, the owner of the Aston Martin Formula One team, along with other prominent sports executives.

What the newly released Epstein files show

The documents are part of a large archive tied to investigations into Jeffrey Epstein and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Epstein died in a New York jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges.

According to reporting by Margaret Fleming in Front Office Sports, the newly released files contain emails, logistical notes, and travel related records that reference individuals across finance, politics, and entertainment.

The appearance of a name in the documents does not necessarily mean the person was involved in wrongdoing. In many cases, people are simply mentioned in correspondence or administrative records.

Lawrence Stroll appears in several documents

One example highlighted in the reporting involves a FedEx shipping receipt from January 2002. According to Front Office Sports, the document shows Epstein sending a four pound package to Lawrence Stroll at a cost of roughly 50 dollars.

A month later, Stroll’s then wife, Claire Anne Stroll, sent a note in French to Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell. In the message she referred to a recent visit to a Caribbean island and thanked Maxwell for taking a photograph of Lawrence Stroll with their daughter Chloe.

Chloe Stroll is now married to Olympic snowboarder Scotty James, while the couple’s son Lance Stroll competes in Formula One for the Aston Martin team owned by his father.

An additional email from 2003, cited in the documents and reported by Front Office Sports, discusses a dinner Lawrence Stroll was expected to attend. In that message Maxwell wrote that the event would include “five models who are the serving girls.”

References to aircraft and later contact

Other documents suggest occasional logistical exchanges involving Epstein and Stroll’s circle.

According to Front Office Sports, a message from 2014 shows Epstein asking his pilot whether Lawrence Stroll might be interested in selling an aircraft the two had previously discussed.

Later correspondence suggests their contact may have faded over time. In a note written in 2018, Epstein wrote that he had not seen Stroll “in a very long time.”

Other sports figures mentioned in the files

The archive also includes references to other prominent figures linked to professional sports organizations.

According to Front Office Sports, New York Giants co owner Steve Tisch appears in correspondence where Epstein appeared to connect him with women. Tisch has acknowledged knowing Epstein but has denied wrongdoing.

The documents also mention Casey Wasserman, chairman of the organizing committee for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games. According to reporting by Margaret Fleming in Front Office Sports, Wasserman exchanged messages with Ghislaine Maxwell and later said he had no relationship with Epstein.

Maxwell is currently serving a 20 year prison sentence for her role in Epstein’s trafficking and abuse of underage girls.

Why sports figures appear in the documents

For readers outside the sports world, the presence of team owners and sports executives in the files reflects how ownership of major sports teams often overlaps with global business networks.

Many owners of professional sports teams are billionaires with extensive connections across finance, technology, and entertainment. According to Front Office Sports, this overlap means high profile sports executives often appear in the same social and business circles as political leaders, financiers, and celebrities.

The newly released archive therefore highlights the breadth of Epstein’s social network, which stretched across multiple industries.

Journalists and researchers are expected to continue reviewing the millions of documents as more details from the release become public.
