Lance Stroll has inked a new multi-year deal to remain at Aston Martin for 2025 F1 season and beyond, into the new regulations.
Having joined the Racing Point project when his father Lawrence Stroll took over the Force India outfit, Lance has been part of the journey since the 2019 F1 season. He has raced under the old banner and when it converted into Aston Martin from 2021 onward.
With Fernando Alonso already confirmed, the signing of Stroll was mostly touted as a mere formality. In the six years with the team, he has scored two podiums out of the 12 that the outfit has scored since 2019 courtesy Sergio Perez, Sebastian Vettel and Alonso.
“I’m super happy to have committed to staying with the team for 2025 and beyond,” said Stroll. “It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come in the last five years; we’ve grown so much as a team and there’s still so much more to look forward to.”
At the same time, team boss Mike Krack said: “We are delighted to confirm Lance’s future with Aston Martin Aramco. He has played a key role in building this team. His technical feedback, alongside his committed simulator work, has helped contribute to the continuous development of the car each season.
“The consistency and stability of both Lance and Fernando remaining with our team is a great platform to continue to realise our ambitions. We look forward to creating some more incredible memories and achieving further success together.”
