Lance Stroll right now is a new Grosjean. He’s inconsistent but on good days, puts on good results. Inconsistency in F1 is what makes some drivers a bit ignored/doubted. One day he’s in the top 10 while in the next few races he’s outside of the points. He’s definitely proven himself. Last year, Emilia Romagna was the only race he scored outside of points without a Retirement or Withdrawal.

To be fair though he had the third best car and cost his team third in the title with that inconsistency. If they had Hulkenburg, they'd have got third, no doubt. If his Daddy didn't own the team and he was just another pay driver, he'd have been kicked to the curb ages ago.

I want to see him (and the rest of the grid for that matter) try a race in IndyCar. The cars in European series tend to be more engineer's cars than driver's cars where engineers set up the cars and drivers need to adapt to how the cars are setup. Like how in F2 and F3 there is a clear team hierarchy despite being 'spec' series. The cars used in IndyCar and the American open wheel ladder are all about the driver finding a setup they're comfortable with and wringing out performance by driving the way they're best at. A great example is seeing on-board footage of Pato driving versus Palou driving. Pato is all over the place while Palou is very composed behind the wheel yet they can both extract the maximum form the cars.

Most drivers who get close to F1 seem to make it in WEC, for one reason or another. Though, the fact that you have time to recover from little mistakes certainly helps!

[@philipbarton3456]

It's definitely 100% the chassis this time around. RP/AM went with a 2019 Mercedes and then ended up eating crow a year later with the floor diffuser and brake duct changes. Mercedes has found a way to turn their 2020 car into a contender in 2021, but Aston more or less shot themselves in the foot since the 2021 regs were pushed to 2022 leaving them with essentially a 2019 car they had to continue to build on. The way it seems, a lot of things that were tossed in betting on a one off shafted them long term. I would not be surprised if the Aston is giving Stroll trouble the same way the 2020 Ferrari gave Seb trouble. The chassis went from strong and predicable to unpredictable as hell. That ruins confidence. And I am not even basing this on a bias towards Stroll, I am just looking at it logically. There was no way Racing Point expected they were going to sneak by the rules the way they did and get away with it long term. So, they duplicated the 2019 Mercedes car to get more winnings based on placement in 2020 so they had better funding going into the new regs hit. Then Covid happened and everyone got screwed. It's like Mercedes with DAS, they put it in the 2020 car as a sendoff of the regs, knowing that the new 2021(2022 regs now) wouldn't allow that. Then 2021 regs ended up being a modified 2020 and Aston has to take a car that is a 2019 car especially, much like Alpine and Sauber.....and look where they are in the standings. Surprise, surprise, they fell back in the standings.

I like Lance, and if the metric of "do they belong in F1" is them being a potential world champion then half the grid needs to go. I'd rate him being similar to Ocon (despite his resurgence of pace this year) and certainly is better than a fair few drivers on the grid. The truth is that plenty of fan favourites who are just as good as Lance, just because they don't have the pay driver title aren't as scrutinized.

[@Mrcento]

Lance Stroll is the only F1 driver that i've seen in 25 years of watching the sport that goes from absolutely bang average in perfect conditions, to a superstar when it all gets tricky. The more difficult it is, the better he does. Turkey last year, rain on bad surface, he sticks it on pole and dominates most the race. It has to be something in his driving style, how he works tyres etc, because you can't be as good as he is in the worst conditions without serious talent. We see it in dry races too, when the car is heavy and the grip goes down, he's generally fairly good, he's capable of picking up lots of places (albeit helped by qualifying lower than he often should) but the guy has very little pure speed in the best conditions, new tyres, low fuel etc. He's a total mystery.

Sebring with it's suuuper bumpy surface is so hard to nail consistently. In LeMans you have to get through a lot of complicated mid to high speed corners while basically having no downforce as that would slow you down on Mulsanne.

@@TooKlingy Yeah i forgot about checo, he's definitely better than Lance, but Lance is pretty good himself

[@rohanmahantesh2382]

Mazespin* 🙂

[@syncmonism]

@@TooKlingy Checo doesn't really feel like a pay driver does he? It's pretty ridiculous how close he was to not being in F1 this season considering how good he is and how much money he brings with him

[@Takeangel1995]

What people seem to forget is that he's still one of the youngest drivers on the grid. Man he's 22 soon to be 23. Honestly I believe that he's not yet at his peak, but his time will come, I'm sure of that. In addition to that, I have a feeling that he started great this season but then that brutal accident in Baku came. Somehow I have a feeling that he's still recovering from that.

I loooove your channel. Absolute best. Entertaining and informative

[@monkeylordofdoom14]

Lol as a Canadian you nailed the map lol Im from just Ontario and lance is good but Danny Ric is where it's at!

[@ZacharyDarkes]

Ya they live in Montreal they are biased lol.

[@kcargill2877]

As a Canadian. I absolutely love this content. Just keep doing what you're doing. I'll keep watching.

[@s14redd89]

This guys is the literal ping pong, he can display senna level wet skill race but afterwards he kind of confused of how brake pedal works. idk about this guy, if anything this guy inconsistent af. The most inconsistent one in the grid tbh, only when he had his spotlight, he threw it away or another driver is there to overshadow his achievement (except Baku in 2017). Stroll still has long way to go, but how long did he will reach that level of a top driver, cuz for somebody who driving the car in 4 years and still having this issue, this guy is sure a slow learner.

[@quaistein-5225]

While I do agree he is good in the wet, he isn't quite a "senna level".

[@Peachrocks5]

The thing is almost anyone else even the standard pay driver would not be given this time. Like keeping him over Perez? Please...

[@aaronmachado13]

I do agree his inconsistency last year were greatly exaggerated as people forget tire failure in mugello, Russia having Charle put him out of the race and Germany getting covid. Hardly his fault whereas Bahrain, portimao and Imola he had some input in the outcome. The problem was that he has a good season whereas Checo had a great year. This year though his unfortunate tire failure came out the same time Seb podium which for a team like Aston Martin is next to impossible to overcome. I do hope he lives up to the title of F1 driver cause the better a driver performs, the more they push their competitors to new heights like Checo did with Ocon, Daniel did to Max and now that he found his footing at Mclaren he is starting to do for Lando.

[@AaryanPrakash]

Watching Stroll Succeed is So Satisfying It's like Calling BS on all F1 Fans AT ONCE

[@gawdpromaxultra703]

Lance was doing very well up until Baku, where he had the tyre failure. I'm pretty sure that that might've affected him mentally coz it was on the straights and all of a sudden when he lost control of the car. He's a really good driver and we all know he can do really well, but the problem rn is that he's not very consistent this season. He's just, there. If he can improve on his consistency issues and his 1 lap pace, I'm pretty sure he'd be a great driver

[@Just_Tong]

Kind of kind of not He's just inconsistent which makes it hard to judge how good he is

[@ashleyknight7329]

That Bane bit was pure GOLD!! 🤣

[@Finnithan]

Hey Josh

[@WeJustRetired]

Love your videos about Lance... Don't always agree but still enjoy them. Lance is usually full of surprises, quiet and usually outdrives cars around him at the start of a race. Don't forget he's sometimes better than most when it rains, as well. Being Canadian myself... we're just waiting for his first win. Oh... it will happen, eh. 👍🍁

[@Spudchucker92]

I'll be the first to admit I do think Lance is lucky to have his Dad as his employer and wonder if it wasn't for that fact if he'd still be in F1 on pure merit. I've mellowed from.the early days of finding any reason to criticise him. I want him to prove the naysayers, including me, wrong. I find myself now quietly rooting for him.

[@junaidnaseer8122]

To be honest he is very underrated

[@Adrian-fo4kv]

I hope either Daniel or Lance wins the championship with the new regulations. Would be fun.

[@Ilikeformulaone]

Daniel saying niko hulkenberg was funny af

[@thecodex0994]

Sir lancelot is my favourite under rated f1 driver at the moment (even those he's a Montreal Canadians fan) and the fact he's managed to upset jacques villeneuve is a huge plus

[@callummackay9804]

I have no doubt stroll would have been in F1 if he hadn’t bought his way in now. He was a phenomenal driver in junior career. I think that he was only memed cos of the money

[@dasaasadaris3675]

The question then is: would he STILL be in F1 without buying seats?

[@mattdesando7140]

As a Canadian outside of Montreal, a lot of Canadians I know don’t like Lance Stroll the same way most people don’t like him around the world and I’ve never seen anyone care about latifi. Personally I like stroll though

[@deathmachineyt3254]

The reason no one cares about Latifi is because he's in a Williams. Shove him into a Mercedes and it'll be the end of the world if someone forgets him. I like both Stroll and Latifi as a Canadian

[@jameslikesturtles8254]

Canadian fan here, and tbh I had literally never heard of anyone or anything about F1 till I looked for it. Every once and a while there will be a highlight mixed in with all the other sports but that’s pretty much it.

[@lennythefish5318]

Yay new upload

[@injeolmi6]

I liked your take on getting him to WEC. I believe in Lance, he's got what it takes, on his day he's really good, just needs to be more consistent.

[@zhaozhang459]

I understand the fact that tomorrow isn't promised to anyone, but investing today is a hard thing to do because I have no idea of how and where to invest in.

[@jaroslavvidensky3489]

as a newbie investing in crypto will be best for you, I know of a portfolio/investment manager, Andrew Miller and expertist in trade investment as you don't have to under go any stress in the trades, he manages my trading.

[@merlinnoah1971]

I'm happy to see Andrew Miller mentioned here, My spouse recommended him to me after investing £4000 and he has really helped us financially in thu times of COVID-19 lockdown here in Australia

[@pendremacherald6758]

Fun fact: For each driver on the podium in the 2020 Italian grand prix, it was their second F1 podium.

[@adambanks7265]

The fact that Perez isn’t the best at qualifying either 😂😭

[@JonnyEnglish-gu1cs]

Think of pairing him with Vettal is a good thing he been consistent and learning his craft yes his dads money has helped him but there is a driver in there

[@KimiButNoDrink]

Is Josh actually doing it? Is he saying Lance is a good driver? I thought the day would never come. (not a lance fan btw just know that Josh hates Lance)

[@Rahul-kz5fi]

Stroll on pole needs to become a quote or a merchandise

[@cappeb]

He can be good but sometimes he makes such stupid mistakes that it makes you question why he is in F1

[@15arturom]

2023 will be THE year!!

[@simbarocksone]

He is improving and he is only 22. I just hope next year is his breakout season because he desperately needs one.

[@blakewentley]

Wow, Canadians are so nice that they're willing to overlook Lance Stroll's driving ability? Truly amazing 👏

[@ZacharyDarkes]

I'm Canadian and not all of us that's only like one opinion they have there are far more F1 fans in Canada and most of us could careless about him.

[@elanamariew]

I think he deserves a seat in F1. That being said, the chance for him to absolutely dominate the WEC is something I would much rather see. Would he be that good? It is hard to say but he would certainly have plenty of pedigree and experience from F1 going into it.

[@SamOGr]

2020 he was actually really good for a large portion of the season, he has promise, next year is make or break for him imo

[@warhead_beast7661]

Well he should more careful when overtaking his teammate thoo, he almost took out Vettel twice now 😅

[@niweshlekhak9646]

Yes, he gave Vettel floor damage in Monza, which basically ended his race, otherwise both could have finished in the points.

[@richardpatton2502]

They should give a trophy to his dad…I don’t know the man but he is fighting very hard to make his sons dreams come true. And that’s to be admired All the best to everyone

[@CptGallant]

As a Canadian and a fan of F1, I can say that I am completely indifferent to Lance Stroll and couldn't give two shits how well or how poorly he does.

[@nutchunder]

Same, and based on the very few Canadian fans I have met (west coast), none of them are big stroll fans

[@cgem8426]

The stroll we all love is that of Kimi’s to his yacht.
