Former F1 driver expects Lance Stroll s seat to be at risk if he does not improve

Former Grand Prix winner Johnny Herbert believes it is time for part-owner of the team Lawrence Stroll to have a chat with his son Lance Stroll regarding his performance and his place in the team. The Briton suggested that this would be the right thing to do for the team's greater benefit. On the F1 Nation podcast, Herbert said: “Lance has had a bit of a difficult time of late. I sometimes think there is a certain time that, if it doesn’t quite happen, Lawrence has got to go ‘son, I’ve given you a chance. It isn’t quite working out, and I’ve got to do what’s right for the team’. I think there will be a point that’s going to happen. I don’t exactly know when that will be, but it’s down to Lance actually to do the job that he needs to do and consistently do that job. At the moment, it’s a little bit scrappy.” As reported by PlanetF1, the 23-year-old also admitted that he still needs to find comfort and consistency with his AMR22, saying: “We’re always learning but I think, just on my side, I want to get into a better more comfortable place with the car. I still feel like I’m not really that confident in the car and feeling very precise, and just predictable in the car. I think I’ve still got to keep working to get back to the place that felt like I was in last year, or the year before, where it was just more predictable and more comfortable. And, right now, it’s still a little bit just difficult for me. And, yeah, I’ve got to keep working with my engineers to try and sort that out.” Lance Stroll currently stands nineteenth in the with three points to his name.
