With the deafening growl of engines echoing in the backdrop of a thrilling British GP, it was disappointment that resounded louder for Aston Martin, as a disastrous shunt between Lance Stroll and Pierre Gasly put Stroll under the piercing scrutiny of race commissioners. This latest incident now casts a dark cloud over Stroll’s F1 future, setting him on a precarious path towards a potential severe penalty that could rattle the very foundation of Aston Martin’s championship campaign.

It was a British GP that Stroll and Aston Martin would rather forget. During the race at Silverstone, Lance Stroll was involved in a collision with Pierre Gasly, leading to a penalty imposed by the race stewards. Stroll’s attempt to defend his position resulted in him going off the track and rejoining in a manner that caused the collision with Gasly. The stewards deemed Stroll responsible for the incident and penalized him accordingly. The team had already been grappling with a downturn in form after an exhilarating start to the season.

The penalty received by Stroll at the British Grand Prix not only impacted his race result but also brought him closer to potential disqualification. According to Formula Passion, Stroll now carries a total of 7 penalty points, just five points away from the threshold that could lead to a race ban. The penalty also cost him two additional penalty points, making him the most penalized driver on the current grid over the past year. With his track record accumulating penalties, Stroll faces a critical situation that could have severe consequences for his future in the championship.
