Formula 1: The farewell hammer? He CAN rock everything

The “silly season” is already underway in the Formula 1 months before the summer break. The move from Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari caused quite a stir earlier this season and made the driver market very exciting.

Now a surprising farewell can shake up Formula 1 again. Suddenly Lance Stroll (Aston Martin) is about to end his career early. According to one report, he is considering leaving.

Formula 1: Is Stroll Tired of Racing?

There were already rumors about the departure of Lance Stroll last season, but now things seem to be more definite again. According to a report from “Sport1”, the Canadian is thinking of leaving after the current season. Stroll no longer wants to race. He would prefer to follow the path of his father Lawrence, owner of the Aston Martin team, and move into management.

A 25-year-old boy has a job guarantee for his father. Only a voluntary departure would ensure he leaves Aston Martin – and according to the report, that should be a strong option.

If the Stroll really takes off, it will further shake up the driver market in Formula 1. Because this would mean that the coveted cockpit in the first class of motorsport will be available again. Aston Martin could take part in the battle of the star drivers and would have the oil wallet as bait.

Alonso’s future is unclear

It is also unclear if Fernando Alonso will continue after this season. The two-time world champion is now 42 years old. He is also considered a candidate for Red Bull and Mercedes. His future is unknown.

According to the report, Aston Martin’s candidates for 2025 include Max Verstappen (Red Bull), teammate Sergio Perez and Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz.
