Adrian Newey launches strong defence of “unfair” Lance Stroll reputation
Adrian ꦫNewey offers first analysis of Aston Marti🦋n's Lance Stroll

Adrian Newey has jumped to the defence of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll, insisting he receives undue criticism.
The driver is the son of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aston Martin team ow🎀ner Lawrence Stroll, the billionaire wi𝓀th a dream to conquer Formula 1.
The team owner attracted two-time champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso to Aston Martin, and more recently convinced Newey to jump ship from Red𒐪 Bull.
Aston Mar🍸tin have been linked with big-money bids to lure Max Verstappen, too.
But his son Lance 🥃Stroll is an enduring pre🐻sence in their car despite occasional analysis that his performances do not merit it.
Stroll is into his fifth season as an Aston Martin driver and his best overall result was 10th in the 2021 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 standings.
But Newey sees something different in the🤪 Canadian driver.
He "♏has an unfairly bad rap, on average", Newe🥀y told the BBC.
"Any driver wh෴o gets to Formula 1 is clearly very good,” he added.
“But I think Lance is much better than people who've🔯 been very poor."
Adrian Newey makes Lewis Hamilton admission

Newey, widely regarded as the best F1🍎 car designer in history, oversaw two glory periods at Red Bull.
But he has never hidden a desire to work ꦉwith Alonso and Lewis ꦍHamilton.
"Fernando, he's such a cool character," Ne🔥wey said.
"He's been an enemy for many years, along with Lewis, and I think I've said before that you can only work with so many drivers, but two drivers I always wanted that I felt I🎃 would enjoy working with, were Lewis and Fernando, and I couldn't work with both, so at least I got🎃 one of them.
"It's only when you get to the racetrack that you really start to dev♑elop that relationship, so I'm looking forward to that developing a little bit this season, but particularly next season."
New𝔍ey is attending this weekend’s F1 Monaco Grand Prix, his fi🎉rst time on the ground with Aston Martin.
mahbx.com were that Newey has changed.
His main focus is on the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 2026 regulations, and designing a car to dominate those.
Newey said about his new colleagues: "There's a ജlot of individually very, very good people. We just need to try to get them working together, perhaps in a slightly better organised way.
"That's simply a result of the roots of the team at Jordan, that be🃏came Force India, that became Racing Point, and was as such always a small but slightly over-performing team, to now in a very short space of time a very big team that the truth i😼s has been underperforming this year."
