Aston Martin needs to find a more capable second driver

Echoes that Lance Stroll ought to be replaced due to his egregious run of form are now growing louder as the team is now sliding down the pecking order following a bad run of form. The Canadian driver presently has an unfavourable record, trailing Alonso by a combined score of 13-1 on Sunday and 12-2 in qualifying head-to-head. Nico Rosberg, the reigning F1 champion, thinks that keeping Stroll on board until 2024 may end up costing them dearly in the long run.

Rosberg said on the Sky Sports F1 Podcast, "I'm not really sure what happened to Lance Stroll there since he's a really talented driver. He demonstrated how he can remain close to Fernando in the start of the season. With just eight races remaining in the 2023 season, Stroll will likely face further pressure if he is unable to regain any form that would aid Aston Martin in securing second position in the constructors' title.
