Jets Owner Johnson Buys F1 Stake

New York Jets owner Woody Johnson has expanded his sports portfolio by purchasing a minority stake in the Aston Martin F1 team. Johnson will join the team's board of directors as a vice chairman.

The Jets owner, who has held the team since 2000, also has a 43% stake in Crystal Palace of the Premier League. The Jets have not made the playoffs since 2010, leading some fans to hope Johnson's attention on other ventures might minimize his influence on the franchise. extract-html.com
