Lance Stroll Dismisses 2024 F1 Exit Claim as 'Fake News'

The allegation came from former Aston Martin reserve Felipe Drugovich, who said a 2024–25 race opportunity was nearly finalized.

Overview

  • Stroll gave the two-word response when asked in Sao Paulo on Thursday and declined to elaborate further.
  • Drugovich told the Na Ponta dos Dedos podcast that Stroll was very close to not continuing in 2024 and that a renewal contract for 2024–25 was put in front of him.
  • The Brazilian served as Aston Martin’s reserve, filled in during 2023 pre-season testing, and is now moving to Formula E with Andretti.
  • Crash reports Stroll remains under contract with Aston Martin through the end of 2026.
  • Aston Martin’s 2025 season has been difficult, with the team seventh in the standings and Stroll 14th in the drivers’ table.
