Aston Martin has extended Lance Stroll’s contract, ensuring the Canadian driver’s future with the team ‘for 2025 and beyond.’ This move solidifies Stroll’s position within the Formula 1 outfit, whose father Lawrence owns the team, and sets the stage for Aston Martin’s continued growth in the sport.
Aston Martin has encountered a challenging few weeks on the Dakar Rally circuit, as their AMR24 car has proven difficult to set up and drive consistently. Both driver Fernando Alonso and his teammate Lance Stroll have reported similar issues with the car’s handling, noting a tendency to shift from oversteer on entry to mid-corner understeer. The team is working to address these setup issues and unlock more performance from the car as the Dakar Rally season progresses.
