Rulebook overhaul could help Canada's only F1 driver outrun his billionaire dad’s shadow
Rulebook overhaul could help Canada’s sole F1 driver beat his dad’s shadow.
Canada’s only Formula One driver, Lance Stroll, has long been accused of riding his billionaire father Lawrence’s money. The 2026 technical overhaul—smaller, lighter cars, 30 kg lighter, mixed‑fuel power units with Honda, movable wings—may give him a boost with Aston Martin. Stroll, 27, finished 16th in 2025 with 33 points, 390 behind champion Lando Norris. Aston’s new $388 million Canadian facility, Adrian Newey’s design, and a dedicated Honda partnership could turn the car into a podium‑contender. The first 2026 car shows Feb 9 and the season starts Mar 6 in Australia. Canadian fans, whose support grew 31.5 % in 2024, will watch if Stroll can finally prove himself on his home track.
