Lance Stroll Calls F1 Criticism 'Noise,' Focuses on Resilience

Aston Martin targets a 2026 rebound via a Honda works deal alongside new technical leadership after a difficult 2025.

Overview

  • In a rare team interview, Stroll said he tunes out harsh commentary by treating it as "noise" and relying on a small circle he trusts.
  • He emphasized learning from setbacks this season and outlined a routine centered on structure, consistency, and taking time to reset.
  • Aston Martin is seventh in the 2025 constructors’ standings and is the only team in the top eight yet to score a podium.
  • The team is preparing a 2026 reset with a Honda works partnership, senior hires including Adrian Newey and Enrico Cardile, and continued Silverstone upgrades.
  • Stroll remains a polarising figure due to his father’s ownership, yet his record includes three podiums and a 2020 Turkish GP pole, and he is running close to Fernando Alonso in the standings.
