TERRIBLE NEWS For Lance Stroll After Aston Martin's STATEMENT!
▶︎▶︎ Lance Stroll’s latest incident in China has made him one of the most talked-about drivers on the grid yet again, but for all the wrong reasons. After looking at the onboard from the Aston Martin driver, it was clear that the lack of attention as well as professionalism after the incident is something that should never be accepted under any circumstance in Formula 1. With this in mind, should Aston Martin already think about an era in which the father-son relationship of Lawrence and Lance won’t play a huge factor in the team’s success, and is there any chance that Honda could ‘nudge’ the investors in the right direction?

If you were the team principal of Aston Martin, would you let Lance Stroll drive for Aston Martin or will you replace him by putting someone else in the seat?
I would replace Stroll. Maybe with Albon.
you really need to ask that question.....its like asking on a sunny day what color is the sky?
I'd have replaced him last year. He has odd moments where he performs as expected but Is so inconsistent and has a terrible attitude. I'd love to see botas in the car alongside alonso. Experience to bring the car forward
I wouldn’t have let Perez go when Vettel joined. There’s at least 30 people and maybe more I’m unaware of who would be better fits. It’s supposed to be one of the pinnacles of Motorsport, having incidents that you can see in civilian traffic and then not taking responsibility for it? Ugh. I can’t stand nepotism and other sorts of bias treatment,
No question, he would be gone. They will never be a real threat while he is on the team.
He's the most consistent driver on the grid. Consistently bad.
Logan Sargeant: "Hold my beer"
Consistently shit 😂😂 Bro is aloof inside the track, no awareness at all 😂😂
Sargeant
They had us in the first half, ngl.
Consistently worse than his teammate goes to stroll, consistently BAD easily goes to Sargeant😂😭
One car is fighting the top dogs and the other is fighting the backmarkers. That should say enough.
F1 should have some kind of system for verifying that veteran drivers are good enough to compete based on their results. (And someone whose teammate is more than 2 spots ahead of them more than 50% of the time in a year should be removed from formula 1.)
@@SamBrickell - That sort of system would definitely work in Alonso's favor.
One fighting the top, other fighting for last,... if we accept that the cars are identical, with only the driver and the driver's preferred setup being different, then Stroll just isn't up to the skill level needed.
@@PiDsPagePrototypes Stroll may be fighting for last but Sargeant is giving him a run for his money.
interesting how fighting for p8-9 puts you in the category of “fighting backmarkers”
Too harsh? The penalty was too lenient. A 10s penalty for ramming another driver out of the race while under a safety car is a complete joke. It should be an automatic DQ if you cause a collision under a safety car.
It's a yoke!
THIS! Absolutely agree with you, mate. How you get away with causing an accident especially one as obvious as this, under SC without any real repercussion is absolutely mindboggling
Very true...why would 10 seconds matter if you are last😂
maybe not automatic, there are loads of different reasons a collision under the safety car could occur. But I agree that an investigation should be conducted once a collision under SC occurs to determine if a DQ is necessary, and in this particular case, it was.
Agree!
I'm a Canadian and I'd love to cheer for a Canadian driver, but I haven't liked this guy from day 1. All these guys are entitled, but he takes it to the next level. Snarky, arrogant and not that talented. I'd be happy to see him replaced and let Aston Martin fight at the very top of the grid. They'd be smart to grab Sainz while they can.
Oh! So no comeback for Latifi then?
@@mikehipperson 🤞
Sainz Alonso... It's a no brainer!!!
Ditto here. We Canadians have fallen a long way since the Villeneuves :(
ironic if Aston sign Daniel HaHa
If Lance's "technical knowledge" is so advanced, then have him be part of the staff for the team.
Lance's claims are as founded as the ruler's of North Korea claiming to have never used the bathroom.
No idea where that shit came from, the kid is 25. What "technical knowledge" could he possibly have?
@@MarkoVukovic0 crumple zones maybe?
@@whosjozikolnik 🤣
How many wheels are on the car? About four more than the number of brain cells Lance has got
1:25 Piastri responds on that was genius to saying: "Yes, but everyone else didn't crash into each other,"
The matter is serious when Daniel stops laughing....
Put anyone but Lance in that car and they are fighting for 3rd place in the constructors
Exactly.
Shit dude put me in there I've got decent lap times on f1 24 lmao
Literally lmao If they had just kept Vettel and signed Alonso in place of Stroll, they would have beaten Mercedes last year in the constructors easily.
@@JustSomeDinosaurPerson Oooh man... What a team that would have been!!!
Lance stroll needs to go I'm sure his dad can waste money on him doing something else
perfect reply :-)
Could Papa Stroll be thinking that since he kept Lance instead of Perez years ago, does he see Lance as a reasonable enough #2 driver just like Perez is at RB. We just witnessed Max singlehandedly carry RB for a season, so Papa Stroll assumes it can all be won by Alonso with a few points by Lance? It's the only thing I can come up with.
Yea, have daddy buy a hyper-car WEC team so his son's poor driving can be absorbed by a 3-person team.
Worst case of nepotism I have seen at the expense of a F1 team
You've forgotten Mazepin THAT quickly?
must be your 1st time watching F1 it seems
Dani doesn’t get mad with just any crayon eating daddy’s boy 😂
Lance does look like he should only be able to say his name. Like Matt Damon in Team America.
Time for Daddy to put Lance in a Valkyrie for endurance racing and sign up Saints or Tsunoda for F1.
and he will crash that one too
Actually Pappa Stroll should send off Lance in one of his super yachts and leave him to play with all the toys out somewhere away from the F1 fraternity….He’d get a better bang for his buck and may just make AstonM a viable entity in F1. 🛥️ 🏖️ 😎
@@dingoeatswolf3663 imagine Carlos' and Fernando's pure domination of the podium's bottom 2 steps. It would be crazy AF. And IF, come 2026, Aston catches a good wind in the new regulations, a driver lineup like this could easily take the top 2 positions. Would be a good swan song for Nando's career, and a high note on which he could retire if he wants to.
@@kemdomClearly don't understand why the team was brought in the first place!
@@leemartin3429 I absolutely understand why daddy Stroll bought his and his son's way into F1. What I don't understand is how can they be so thick in the brain not to understand they could create something BIG there. Lance could still be living off of daddy's money, race some endurance or touring car championship and actually be a decent driver there. In the F1 team he is nothing more than an anchor holding the team back while their signed drivers race in top 3-5 territory.
Alonso must be the strongest driver on the grid, he's carrying the whole team.
Bizarre logic. Certainly didn't happen at Alpine and Stroll being bad makes pretty much *any* driver carry the team he's at.
Bro, this dude reminds me of commodus from gladiator😂😂😂
Funny, yes you are correct
Lance in 95% of post-race interviews: "It vexes me. I'm terribly vexed."
And Alonso is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the TRUE emperor, Marcus Aurelius.
@@unwokeneuropean3590 🗿
@@unwokeneuropean3590 Almost like his dad was the previous emperor and through his actions he is killing his father and his brand🤣🤣
What technical knowledge do Lance have to possibly help AMR? He clearly don’t even know where the break pedal is….
Haha, *brake* pedal. But yeah, not sure what this "technical knowledge" is supposed to be.
Does anyone actually like Lance as a sportsman and driver? Does he even have a fan base? (would be fun to know what type of people that would be outside the family). An absolute joke.
I'm a Stroll fanboi tbh! Without Stroll RPM wouldn't be able to make nearly as many windowlicking memes All I can say is that he would be sorely missed by comedy enjoyers around the world
There are people who blindly defend him. I’ve seen people even defend him from this ridiculous incident. Either he’s got people on his PR who do this or there are people out there who are legitimately this stupid. Neither outcome would surprise.
@@Mammel248 could bring back Maldonado....wouldn't they be a duo?
Not a Lance hater but this guy needs a lesson in manners Lance would have received more positive feedback back if apologise for this action in driving into the back of someone car His father is not doing Lance any favours in realistic manner Lance did receive penalties maybe this will assist in this driving one can hope Lance is not doing Aston Martin any favours I would be fuming if I was a shareholder within Aston Martin Alsono has shown that the car has got promise this is being thrown away by Lance driving abilities
🙋♂️ I'm a Lance $troll fan
As soon as the Sainz-Hamilton replacement happened daddy Stroll should've booted his son and signed Sainz immediately. Lance is just not a great driver. Aston needs a great to fight for top 4
Yes! What a combo Alonso and Carlos would be! 😎
@@davidlynch9049 The Spanish Armada!
To OP. Alonso signed that Aston Martin contract *just because he knew Stroll will be his team mate and daddy Stroll wants Alonso to mentor his son* If Aston Martin really wanted Sainz they'd sign him by now and had they done so Alonso would *not* have stayed and extended his contract.
@@McLarenMercedes Oh I totally agree. We’re all just speculating what could be good teams with provided drivers on the market. Stroll will be here probably longer than we all expect. Which i don’t think anyone is surprised by except maybe Honda lol
I still chuckle everytime I see a photo of Stroll in his uniform knowing how much of an oxymoron it is for him to have "cognizant" across his chest considering how terrible of an F1 driver he is.
Love this!
You win the internet!
Weak team principal choosing money over integrity will lead the team to doom. It's just a matter of time.
The word is 'sycophant,' I think.
Some people are just born with everything handed to them and with all the luck of the world. He has no more technical knowledge than any other driver in the grid. Unfortunately for Alonso, the best thing for Aston Martin is to keep losing, so it gets to the point where investors and Honda pressure Stroll Sr. to sack his son and replace him with someone that deserves a seat on the grid.
Maybe shave a Chimpanzee and give it a Super Licence
Aston Martin shareholders should vote to replace Lance from the team now as he is a liability for the team
They should, Alonso can’t carry the team to p2 or p3 in the constructors by himself.
No mention of TERRIBLE NEWS for Lance Stroll anywhere in the video, just speculation. Once again, save yourself 9 minutes and spend it doing something more useful like sorting your sock drawer. Also, presenter apparently doesn't know how to pronounce "concertina"…
If Aston want to be successful it will never be with Lance in a drivers seat, if I was Aston I would be negotiating with Sainz
But *Alonso* signed a contract because he knows his only "competition" will be Stroll. Even if Lance suddenly quits I don't see neither Sainz nor Alonso seeing anything but trouble. You see they are both Spaniards and this would mean *one of them has to fall* . With Stroll having a rolling contract Alonso can chill. He'd *never* sign an extension going into his mid 40's if somebody good who might challenge him would come to the team. I'm amazed how some of you can't understand this.
Technical knowledge? He doesn’t know where the brake pedal is
The worst part is that daddy’s boy won’t apologize nor say it was his fault , blaming others , this clearly tells me that daddy never said no to him , I feel so sorry for him
Aston Martin will never be a serious contender in the constructors championship with this driver on their team. Best they can do is maybe 5th unless the back markers can overtake them. Their greed for the dollars from daddy will be their downfall.
With all respect Mr. Stroll, it is time! I'm a father also and sometimes honesty hurts. Unless you just want your son to enjoy himself than that's ok also. Dads will understand.
As a father of two young children what I make of the situation is that Lance is a spoilt child with a case of arrested development. He has seemingly never managed to achieve anything in his life without his dad holding his hand and it has made him develop a sense of entitlement that is beyond his skill as a racing driver. He is unapologetic when he messes up because he has seemingly never been held accountable for his screw ups, in fact it is the exact opposite. Anytime he fails to deliver or completely messes up, the whole team is seemingly geared towards excusing his failings and instead talk him up even more. I’ve never heard of an F1 team “being built” around a driver that has spent his whole career being bested by his teammates, yet those are the exact words that came out of Aston Martin team principal Mike Krack’s mouth. It’s this misplaced cheerleading of this through and through mediocre driver, that has caused Lance to develop a sense of entitlement that he can do no wrong and that others are to blame for his failures. And why ? All because his father is the team owner! Lance has the worst teammate record in F1 right now bar Logan Sargeant. From 2017-2024 he has been bested by every teammate in the h2h qualifying stats. In fact the only time Lance has managed to best one of his teammates over a season in anything, was during the 2018 season h2h race finish stats against Sirotkin at Williams.
It'd be a fun conversation to imagine. Papa Stroll reminds Lance that his sister crashes fewer cars and is now under consideration for the seat.
What terrible news?? Stroll is not in this seat predicated upon his talent (which continually comes into question ) alone. It’s called the power as the checkbook. Look I think it is hard to drive these cars. It’s serious business however, it is a business and Stroll does not fit the bill or stand up to the challenge. He’s peaked.
Also, I’m not a fan of Stroll, but I don’t think you can use his words over the hot mic while he just finished crashing into the back of the Australian as that’s 100% emotions and a WTF moment. However, After Stroll reviewed the incident on video, he should have stepped up, been a man, and take responsibility for his mistake. If he would have done this immediately, he would not be going through any of this deserved criticism right now and no one would be talking about it. His father should have guided him in this direction immediately. Unfortunately, Rich kids are different and blame everyone but themselves when they are clearly wrong. Life lesson I guess.
Okay. We'll use his words at the interview instead No better
@@toolegittoquit_001 Hi, That’s my point and I agree with you 100%, he should have man’d up then and apologized to Ricardo and stated that he was wrong…..he didn’t therefore he deserves all this negative press. I’m actually with you here. 👍🏼
He's not a rookie. He's a highly paid professional driver in the pinnacle formula of motorsport. Yet, still behaving like a brat.
@@MarkoVukovic0 Sorry, but he is a rookie in F1 standards, do you compare him as an equal to his teammate Alonso as an equal? Of course not, he’s a rookie pal in F1, stop embarrassing yourself!!
That person you just accused of embarrassing themselves was not disagreeing with you... also they were right. A rookie is a person who is new to an organization or activity. In professional sports it almost always means a first-year competitor. The word refers to being inexperienced and/or untrained; it never refers to skill. Indeed, a rookie can be highly skilled just as a veteran can be highly unskilled. This is Lance Stroll's 8th season in F1. He is not a rookie.
Stroll looks like he doesn't want to be there. Fernando coming in has also highlighted how behind the other drivers he is in terms of having that x-factor needed to push for wins etc.
So his teammate started the chain reaction...how fitting...how ironic
What would Aston's year be like if Fernado and Vettle where the main staple. The car has the balls and meat to be Ferrari's or McLaren's nemesis. Lance should have the balls to say, Dad sorry, I can do better or we can do better, I am no going to get any better.
If Aston Martin wanted to be considered a serious Racing Team, they would've got rid of Lance years ago.
Tennis is Stroll thing since he likes to hit something.
keeping Lance for technical knowledge... yeah righ specially when there is has been more experienced teammates that have won few championships.
What a joke
I'd love to know what goes on in the Stroll home when Dad and Son have these 'discussions'!
They need to move on from Lance. Either go after Sainz or give the seat to Felipe Drugovich!
I think Honda will tell Stroll, he goes or we don't come. If that message is delivered at an investor's meeting, I believe the pressure will be overwhelmingly for Honda's argument.
for a team that chases performance and success first and foremost maybe. But the prime directive of this team is not that, but to have a seat to give to Lance. What possible arguments could Honda bring that would work for this list of priorities? Lawrence would sooner see the whole deal fail than replace Lance
@horiavelciu31 If the other investors were to join Honda, Stroll could be forced into a proxy fight that could devalue the entire property to a critical survival point. I don't think Daddy will throw away the much just to coddle his son. Add to that, if the driver's, or teams, said if he's out there he's alone out there....or if the FIA pulls his license.....
Mike McKracken is 100% right: better to nerf the driver in front and ruin 3 drivers’ races, including your own, than to lose a car-length under the safety car
It would be better if Aston Martin sign the Carlos for 1 year or Riccardo for it that will be better Lawrence stroll is a father but family should not come in business what I think as a Indian Lance stroll is not that good and they also known that I guess
He's only in that seat because of his rich daddy... and he does come across as very unmotivated/uninterested...
Stroll has to go. He’s got no idea. Underperforming for too many years. Doesn’t understand racing. He should have been DNF’d! Bring in Yuki with the new Honda engine.
AM will never rise to the top while they continue to favor their weaker driver.
Load of tosh.
A good father will go let his son marinade and learn a bit, take him off the driver seat. Being a father doesn’t mean giving every single opportunity out there - if your child doesn’t actually deserve it.
Aston Martin should be 3rd or 4th in constructors if they would just replace him with a good drive like Liam...just saying
It's funny that Lance says it wasn't adressed directly at Ricciardo when he said on the radio, quoute " THIS idiot just slammed the brakes "
The dum bassery from this as sclown is amazing... but not unexpected.
What language is that?
Dude straight up looks like he might be Dexter driving F1
Something is really wrong when you have a Team Principle that condones this attitude.
Well, he's paid by the rich kid's daddy, and I'm sure the dude wants to keep his well paid job.
Stroll was wrong & should have apologized. That being said ,I do believe he has his moments & can still improve as an F1 driver, improve enough to become top noch, who knows but the real question is does he want to or even need 2 improve w/daddy as boss?? This is bad optics 4 Stroll & not diong the right thing & apologizing made this mess even worse. Lance do the right thing. 🧐
How can they say they rely on Lance's technical knowledge and build their car around him, but do worst than his teammate
You guys are being a bit harsh considering how few accidents he's had, and he's usually not too far from his teammate who's one of the best drivers on the planet. Although it would be great to see both Spaniards team up and do well together.
Oh please... Not too far from his teammate? Sure.
Russell, piastri and ricciardo showing the reaction time and attentiveness of an f1 driver and then there's stroll.
Nepotism is never a good thing.
I agree but Lance is on another level it's up to Alonso to improve and reach the bench mark set by Lance , but with Newey on board it may be different
"I don't know who" Laughable response when it was Alonso who was the only one who fully locked up his brakes a few cars in front.
F1, where "conflict of interest" isn't in the vocabulary. Honda pushing their sub-par driver over Daddy's driver, isn't any more respectable. The Alonso Martin team needs a good #2 driver, someone who earns the seat because of driver merit.
Lance would have been told to pull his finger out if he was working for another team
I can't understand messing up completely, but reflexively calling Daniel "idiot" grossed me out.
Stroll had the best mentors in Vettel and Now Alonso. If it were any other team than he'd definitely be cut, but it's notnany other team. You have a father who wants to be competitive also is basically there to secure his sons spot on the grid and finance his expensive hobby.
Considering how Honda is going to supply engines for Aston, I think there's a chance Tsunoda will eventually replace Stroll. And I'm all for it. Tsunoda has proven to be a decent driver while Stroll has only shown that he doesn't deserve to be in F1
Lance complaining about the penalty should count his lucky stars. Honestly, ANYONE who causes an accident under safety car conditions should be an automatic DQ....but to not only cause an accident under safety car AND cause another car to go DNF at the same time should be instant DQ on top of a 5 place penalty at the NEXT race!!!
Couldn't agree more!
I would like to see Daniel Riccardo take the second seat at Aston Martin. I think Daniel and Fernando would be really competitive.
There was a concertina, but he was the only one who hit anyone in that concertina. I have done the same in playing the game, but I'm playing a game on my PC for fun, not driving professionally at the peak of Motorsport.
I think that letting Perez go for baby Stroll was the moment I realised that Lance has his paid seat for as long as papa Stroll is in charge, no matter what the outcome may be. Fernando staying with the team I hope will bring him the rewards that he so deserves. Give him the car and I believe he will deliver. Maxy boy is good when he is fast, but does not have half the skillset that Alonso has.
Aston Martin needs to grab Sainz while they can like a previous commentator said and reduce Lance to a test driver role. A safe seat will always damage your motivation if you are that arrogant. Alonso clearly has a completely different mindset, with masses of self motivation. Honda have that winning mentality and will not be happy with a driver that does not take it seriously.
I hear all the people saying stroll shouldn’t have a seat next season. Fuck that, he shouldn’t have a seat for the rest of this season either. The man’s a danger to everyone around him. How he’s a F4 and F3 champion is beyond me.
It's clear to me that reporter doesn't know the business. Each car carriers it's own velocity and distance from others so it's not because one driver crashes that every one else would crash too. You all envy about Lance because he rich. He drives any ordinary driver like Hulkenberg, Tsunoda, Bottas .. not brilliant but not bad.
It amazes me that someone who is a self made billionaire, one who would be thought of as an extremely intelligent man, cannot accept that his son is ruining his investments of the team and major partnerships like Honda and other sponsors.
The funny part is that Alonso caused everyone to brake but Stroll should have paid attention
Aston is a fast car that needs both commited drivers.Last season if Alonso had a better team mate they stood a chance to fight for constractors.
We know Alonso sets a high watermark for Stroll to aim at, but his recent performances suggest he isn't up to it. He can be quick and competitive, we saw it in the Force India car, but that seems a long time ago. Alonso was fullsome in his praise when he joined AM, about he would work withLance. We don't hear too much of that now though do we?. The team has let Lance down strategically on a number of occasions both in quali and the race, but Lance just doesn't seem to have the ability to get the car further up the grid without verging on the edge of an accident. Drugovich would show him up if he got the chance. Felipe is a real talent and kicking his heels at AM is a waste of that talent. He'll go to Indycar for sure...........one day perhaps Lance ends up there too. Maybe Honda will insist on the change.
What I find unfair is that everyone is judging Stroll on his perf relative to a 2 time world champion who is known to be able to place cars that generally dont handle very well several places higher than they deserve to be. Stroll when paired with Vettel didnt look as bad. Fernando has that rare ability to extract extra performance from a difficult car that many other f1 drivers wouldnt be able to. I feel for Stroll cause being FA's teammate must be extremely hard on his self confidence and ego. Alonso outperformed his team mates by a wide margin like 80% of the time. Fisicella, Villeneuve, Massa, Raikkonen, Young, Ocon, Trulli, Button, Piquet, Grosjean, Vandorne, Marques and Hamilton. Some more than others but in that list you have Massa, Button, Raikkonen and the 7 time world champion Hamilton who finished equal in championship pionts to Alonso even though the team favoured Hamilton due to Spygate. Many in that list were excellent drivers. You have 4 f1 world champions in that list and FA wiped the floor with them all but Hamilton.
Alonso didn't crash into someone, Stroll did.
I think if Stroll had shown more humility the situation wouldn’t be so blown up. Let’s be real too having to compete with Alonso is a nightmare there’s not many driver 2s that can compete with Alonso, if it wasn’t daddy’s paid driver I dont think we’d be so harsh.
Honda shouldn’t work with Aston Martin. They clearly cannot make clear, unbiased decisions for keeping Lance
I'm glad Lance is in the race circuit and NOT ON PUBLIC ROADS. You hit someone from behind and u don't take responsibility???
I'm sorry did I miss the part where "terrible news" is mentioned?
Daddy has supported him long enough but its now time past where you can justify to shareholders keeping a no hoper when there is so much talent available.
How much technical knowledge could he have that is more beneficial than that of a 2 time world champion. I think if he had no security net with Aston Martin he might actually drive better knowing his job is on the line!
Pay Williams to take him back then Pappa Stroll can replace him with a real driver 😂. Win win for all 🤣
Losing a cars length is a lot less then a ten second penalty 😅
It seems Mike Crack knows who pays his salary the way he is defending Stroll junior. The sad part of it is that it is quite obvious to anyone seeing it that Stroll was at fault for the crash. As has been shown he was not even looking at what happened in front of him. He should have been given a much more severe penalty for it. He doesn't deserve to be in F1. He is taking up a seat for someone who actually have the skills to be there (yes, i know F1 have had pay-drivers for years and Stroll is nothing more than that considering who his father is). As long as they keep Stroll as a driver they will not advance much if at all towards the top teams. It also seems clear to me that Stroll is not really doing anything to help his own situation and improve. I must have missed it in the video, but where exactly is it that Aston Martin give a statement of terrible news to Lance Stroll???? I don't see it anywhere in the video...
It’s not even a question, Stroll is almost no better than some other paid drivers we’ve seen in the past who have Rich fathers. Talent always it performs financial backing.
I think a better driver should join Aston Martin and Lance can go and try another categoria in a Aston Martin ,naybe DTM or something.
Too bad, being Canadian, I wanna see Stroll do well. This is ridiculous, 😮😊😂
I know DTS is overdramatized and stuff but watch his interviews early on and then look at his interviews now. He’s so dispassionate now. He doesn’t want to be here.
Say what you will - this is how a father should be, to protect his son on the one hand, and on the other hand to do everything so that his son will one day be the world champion. Look how much his father does not give up and invests more and more to bring his son to the championship. I also believe that his father is with him And his son does prove him when necessary - but because of his love for the son - so towards the world he shows his love clearly and the son will always be the driver of an Aston Martin.
Stroll will never be a champion, no money in the world will achieve that.
They'll keep him, because he has taken out a lot of rivals this and other seasons. Not only Ricciardo.
Let's see what is stronger: a father's love for his son or a businessman's instinct to keep improving the position of his company/project?
F1 for him is the Lance project.
It is a smart move by Stroll senior to work with Honda. Stroll senior can dump Stroll jr by saying it’s the wish of Honda. It will happen!
Get Sainz or Hulk back with Alonso racing next year the results will be absolutely fantastic for the team
Honestly at this point Daddy Lawrence needs to take him out of the seat cause all he's doing is destroying his reputation. Put him in endurance racing where theres a little less of a spotlight and maybe he can actually do well.
This is Lance's 7th season in F1. He started out looking pretty good for a rookie, but he hasn't gotten any better. Now it's just nepotism keeping him in that seat. Daddy Stroll should start another team, put Lance in as lead driver, and a mediocre prospect from F2 as 2nd, then have at it. Hire Sainz or Perez to be 2nd to Alonso in the lead team.
I love my son. But if it came to my son affecting my business? I own my own IT consulting business. I imagine my son will work for me in the future as he is very much into IT as well (hes only 12 rn). But i teach my kids responsibility and ethics, and to ensure whatever they do, they do their best. If Lance were my son, i would have shitcanned him 2 seasons ago. In fact, i would have shitcanned Lance and saved Checo to join up with Vettel and Alonzo. The team would have scored way more points if that was the case over the last three seasons.
Poor Mike Krack, forced to find excuses to his appalling 2nd driver! If it wasn't for the father of the aforementioned driver, the song would be totally different. Wanting to build the future of Aston Martin around Lance Stroll is the stupidest thing a team manager can do, but apparently love is blind when it comes to Lawrence Stroll and his offspring.
lets see if one can fire the boss 😂
Sigh to say that there was more to it and the judgement was to swift from Aston Martin is pathetic; they need to actually look at the images with out looking the other way.
Sorry he should have been disqualified. Magnuson 20 secobd penalty for being stupid
They must be desperate to find another investor. I feel sorry for the peope who have to defend Lance's actions. That is damaging their integrity and damaging to the team's image.
