Stroll has struggled to get close to Aston Martin teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso so far this season, though a broken wrist injury picked up in a cycling ♈accident over the winter has hindered him. 

While Alonso has racked up 117 points and six podiums across the opening eight races to 𝓰sit third in the championship, Stroll managed a best result of fourth in Australia and has scored just🐓 37 points. 

Stroll turned in one of his better performances of the campaign at his home race in Canada as he rose from 16th on the grid to finish ninth▨, though his 𝄹father and team owner Lawrence had set a pre-weekend target of having both cars on the podium. 

Speaking on their Formula for Success podcast, former grand🅺 prix team owner Eddie Jordan and ex-F☂1 driver David Coulthard discussed a dilemma Stroll Sr may face.

Jordan said: “Here’s a question. You own Aston Martin an⛦d have poured fortunes and fortunes of your own money [into it] and there’s a huge amount of sponsorship money, what do you say to the sponsors who have come to you and they ask you the question: ‘Are you sure that Lance can do the job that we need to do to get this team to be a winning constructors team?’

ꦫ“And I want to know if you’re Lawrence Stroll, what do y🐈ou answer?”

ꦫMcLaren and Red Bull driver Coulthard admitteꦛd in response that “the stopwatch doesn’t lie”. 

“[That is a] brilliantly simple statement of truth,” he added. "I’m not sꦦaying Lance isn’t good enough, he’s won everything all the way through his journey towards Formula 1.

“I think there’s been some elements of misfortune in his run this year but is it any surprise in one of the most difficult transitional qualifying sessions that you’ve seen this year, and in Monaco as well, that one young, brilliant talent [Max Verstappen] and an older brilliant talent [Alonso] fin🌳d their way onto the front row?

“So there’s a point where you can’t keep making excuses. This is a s🎉topwatch competition, and a certain point that is what will dictate what teams cho꧋ose to do in the future. 

“I’m sure you had drivers in theꩵ car that you didn’t truly believe was a Michael Schumacher or whatever, because they were paying the bills, but you needed to do that [at the time].”

Aston Martin team principal Mike Krack defended the job Stroll is doing after🍰 the race in Montreal. 

"[In qualifying] h🐎e struggled with grip and if you struggle like that and you don't have the confidence, t♉hen it is very difficult," he said.

"And [in the race], I think he drove really well. We took him out of traffic and when he was out of traffic, he managed the lap times of the of the front runඣners on the hard.

"But if you are in this DRS traℱin, it's really ha☂rd to come from 16 to nine, I think it's a great achievement.

"Now on paper it looks only ninth and your team-mate finishes second, and you think it's not a good performance. But when you see whe༺re you come from, I t𝕴hink he was very good."
