Formula 1 Career:

Lance Stroll made his Formula 1 debut in 2017 with Williams. His rookie season was marked by a series of impressive performances, including a podium in Azerbaijan which made him one of the youngest drivers to stand on an F1 podium. His ability to handle pressure and deliver strong results caught the attention of the racing community, with him famously saying that “diamonds are made under pressure”

In 2019, Stroll joined Racing Point, which was later rebranded to Aston Martin (owned by his father, Lawrence Stroll). His tenure with the team has seen him grow as a driver, with several notable performances such as his first career pole position in the wet conditions of the Turkish Grand Prix in 2020. Stroll’s resilience and adaptability have been key factors in his development as a competitive driver in Formula 1. He has been commended on numerous occasions by Fernando Alonso, his teammate.
