Lawrence Stroll is considering selling 25 percent of the Aston Martin team – F1sport.cz

According to the Bloomberg website, Lawrence Stroll wants to use the current popularity of F1 to evaluate his investment.

Lawrence Stroll has been the owner of the Silverstone team since 2018, when he saved the then Force India team and had it renamed Racing Point. The team later became the factory team of the Aston Martin car manufacturer, whose shares Stroll also owns.

However, according to Bloomberg, the Canadian businessman is now seriously considering selling a quarter of the team’s shares. And this also in connection with the fact that he would like to use the rise of the team and the growing popularity of Formula 1 to evaluate his investment.

The news that Stroll could sell part of his shares in the team, in which his son Lance races alongside Fernando Alonso, comes amid speculation that successful designer Adrian Newey could join Aston Martin from Red Bull .

However, according to journalist and former employee of several F1 teams Peter Windsor, this will not happen.

“I believe he’s already been offered a lot of money by Aramco and Aston Martin, but he’s turned it down. I’m not surprised because I don’t think he needs the money. I don’t think money is a motivation for Adrian,” Windsor said in his YouTube podcast.
