Me: Daddy please buy me a kart. Lance: Daddy please buy me an F1 team.

watching this after that shitty chinese gp, "there was nowhere to go" and proceeds to go under daniels car, such a nepo baby its unreal

We are now post-China GP, and this has aged like fine wine.

damn, Max already showed his dominance in 2011💀

the photo of him beeing a kid with his current teamate is so lol

i came for a tutorial, not for a story

I actually feel bad for Lance. I see this being about his father living his own F1 dream vicariously through his son.

We shaped the world where money can buy anything

Lance isn't THAT bad, definitely doesn't deserve a place in that team though. Maybe Kick Crypto Gambling Stake Sauber will have a spot for him.

tbh I find it hard to get animated about Stroll when most drivers on the grid wouldn't be there if they didn't come from extreme wealth. It's just in his case it's a bit more explicit.

Why are people hating on the video / channel in the comment section? Lance would absolutely be out of F1 if it wasn't for his dad. This is the most obvious thing for multiple years... Great content, as always!

the designers at AM said they want to add new parts for miami and redesign the software, Lawrance said "on both cars?" the designer said "cars? no we mean your son"

well you can't be worst then mazespin

You should do a story about matt mingays crash. He died on the track twice, got resuccitated, faced several facial injuries and brain damage and continued to drive and stunt bikes months later. He has a documentary.

I mean. The goal of a father is to give their son everything they’ve ever wanted. Can’t be mad

Add a crash during a safety car to the list

that thumbnail is insane lol.

Occasionally flashes of excellence but on the whole not consistent enough. F1 becoming ever more financially successful, is moving away from pay drivers. Which is a good thing but let us not forget that many teams for a long time could not survive without them. For all the bad rep that is projected on his son, Lawrence made massive investments in F1 that not only kept teams alive but in the case of Astin Martin, put it on a healthy trajectory with state of the art facilities.

I think I have watched one F1 race in my whole life, but the video was so well done, I really had to watch from start to the end. Good stuff, I'm thinking on checking your next controversial video

0:15 Both Canada AND North America 😮 I have been to both Korea and Asia

I can't hate on Lance because if we're all being honest, if I had the financial backing to join F1 I would do the same thing. I just hope he starts to be more consistent and show the skill he has.

As much as I think he doesn’t deserve the seat, I do think that without Lance, Lawrence Stroll would not invest in F1 and hence we wouldn’t be able to see Alonso fighting for podiums in these past couple seasons. All top teams were too occupied anyway with their young drivers talent program and would consider twice before signing Alonso back for 2023 season. In a universe without Lance Stroll, the team we know as AM now would probably be just some other midfielder team that wouldn’t be as entertaining to watch

about time for this video. i was waiting long for it.

F1 is a funny thing for me. I understand that a lot of the pay to play drivers also helped float certain teams when money was a bit tight. So hopefully the driver pool will start to shake up a lil bit. If it doesn't, i don't think the overall feel of F1 will change for us that aren't true die-hards. I enjoy the absolute precision and interesting tactics used and also the general coolfactor of an F1 race being so well shot for viewers! Since the racing doesn't have a ton of action, it's very nice to throw it on, and be able to listen and still know that you didn't miss much visually. I just want to see the drivers be legit track monsters... And i think Lance really is. He can wheel that sumbitch even if papa made it actually come to fruition!

Any driver with more then one podium in F1 is NOT a bad driver. You cant buy your way to the podium. Was lance a good driver? Yes. Is he washed now? Absolutely lol

Well, Lance making silly mistakes aged well in China

seems like this guy makes watching f1 more fun.. he is the dose of unpredictability that makes accidents more frequents

I don’t have a problem with how he got into F1. It may not be my favorite way, but that’s how it is sometimes. I have a massive problem with F1 drivers like Perez potentially losing their F1 seats after scoring incredible results, all because they don’t have the benefit of being the boss’ son

if lawrence was really serious in his son development a good teaching was to get him a testing role and make him work to go back to the main team, that would be a thing from a real dad, can you imagine jos verstapen seeing his son doing that!???

this is the sort of video that will inevitably pop up on a video about internet hate

In the first 3 races of 2024 Lance Stroll:- 9 points A certain 7 time WDC:- 8 points 🗿🗿🗿

Business card is rumoured to be, “Backup driver” Family Business

I mean, Lance isn't the _worst_ pay driver of all time. He's at least shown some ability to race in F1.

I am shocked a) the other AM investors have not demanded a legitimate driver, b) Honda didn't get the right to name a driver as part of its exclusive engine supply deal, and c) Lance still has a super license.

Who here after Lance stroll's P1 in stupidity in Chinese GP 2024 🎉🤑🤑🤑😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

The thumbnail is so on point.

I’ve never sat in an F1 car let alone driven one, but I’m pretty sure I could NEVER get a single point let alone multiple podiums. Pay driver or not, you’ve still got to push these vehicles around a track at a fair lick. The ‘slowest’ guy on track will always much faster than we ever could dream to be

colin and samir inspired thumbnail?....nice!!!!

Aston might actually be better than Mercedes in the Constructors if Stroll wasn’t on the team lol

Money is important, yes, but you cant reach F1, if you are too slow for the 40 required superlicense points. Lance Stroll was successful enough to earn the license in his junior career. And dont forget: Stroll is a former F3 European Champion, which is one of the series filled with a lot of talented drivers. Just look at the grid that was in the year, when stroll or occon won it. There was a lot of top drivers there.

Best thumbnail award 🥇

Lance Stroll reminds me of Iosef Tarasov (Viggo's Son) from John Wick movie🍿 😂

If I was Sr. Stroll, I would also do whatever he's doing, and keep supporting Lance, there are things more important than money, family

I don't necessarily respect him as a person, granted he is my age and I obviously envy his bloodline, but I don't HATE Lance Stroll. It's a crazy take! He's an alright driver who drives on the level of Magnussen or Zhou. And he's not a bad person, although I won't fogret the physical attack he made on his personal trainor. Naturally, we will always make jokes olabout Stroll and make fun of him for the fact that he is a pay-driver who would have likely lost his F1 seat at Williams had it not been for his dad's enormous wealth. With that said, I don't believe anybody actually "hates" him but I can only speak for myself.

In the era of new technical regulations, Lance is the new Pastor Maldanado.

And today was another milestone in his carreer, thanks to his clumsyness did Ricciardo a favor of remodelling his back

My parents joy was watching us having the best time they could afford. Good on Lance senior.

bro the one crash after the race was absolutely not his fault that’s insane

As a Canadian its always nice to root for someone from the same country. Except for this case...

In both canada and north america?

''stroll isn't looking where he's going!'' is quete that summarizes strolls career

He went into an F1 car, just after breaking his wrists. He may be a paid driver, however to do that, he's must love what he does. So, it's unfair to judge the man fulfilling his dreams. Given the chance, we'd all do the same.

All motorsports costs money... karting can be extremely expensive. But you up your chances to win when you can buy custom parts others can not...thats not winning by being good.

This is how the world is. Nothing new, nothing you will not see again. On the other hand he is doing his best to be what he wants to be. If you start breaking down everyone you see, you will always find flaws. This is why they say "never meet your heroes". Also, most the people that cry over others can't fill their shoes. This man is a race car driver and that is all you should ever care to know. Today some seem to have a problem with looking for ways to look down on others to feed their own egos. Who is really the joke here.. Oh I have some 1/2 baked tea, let's spill it for views. After all it's all about me.

No other driver would survive being beaten by his teammate in every year he was in F1.

I think he should move to touringcars. There are plenty of f1 drivers who may have struggled in F1, but had amazing careers in touringcars.

Shame you missed that Vettel retired after the race where stroll brake-checked Vettel to take an undeserved win.

Let's not forget how Valtteri deliberately joined Mercedes, because he wanted to be the Hamilton's pet, instead of a Formula 1 champion. Stroll may have been labelled as "Daddy's cash", but Bottas has less trophies than Harry Kane and is worse than Jolyon Palmer. Drivers like Bottas (purposely joining a team only to make your teammate better than he actually is instead of fighting for the title) and pay drivers DON'T deserve a seat in F1, while drivers like Oliver Bearman, Mick Schumacher, Nicholas Latifi and Bruno Senna definitely deserve a seat in F1.

"A team is only as strong as it's weakest link."

His not a bad driver but without his father he would be out of sport a long time ago giving a chance to some fresh talent

There should have an amount counter in the of the money Lawrence "Donated" throughout the years

Sure his teammates seem to beat him in every statistic. However, a lot of his season finishes were 10th, 11th,12 etc meaning there always seems to be at least 7-8 drivers worse than him points wise. The last two seasons were not great for sure.

You have to rich and good to be an F1 driver. How many amazing drivers are out there that will never get an opportunity to show what they are capable of.

Ollie Bearman deserves Stroll's seat!

Isn't that title indicative of how everyone, maybe until recent years, makes it? Jackie Stewart thought so. It may not normally be this severe, but it seems to be absolutely necessary that the silver spoon was present.

man im saving up for an electric screwdriver and THATS too much

I remember reading an article years ago about how Lance would be the next big thing, as a Ferrari apprentice. But his dad probably paid the magazine for the article come to think of it. And Tommy Hilfiger was always shite gear.

I understand pay to play, it's an expensive sport, but at what point to does his dad say enough is enough and get a better driver? Is it about taking his team to the top, or just paying enough money so his son can driver F1?

Deion sanders literally became a coach to get his sons in D1 schools then into p5 school and it shows without papa they wouldn’t be there and his son delulu talking about I been through adversity

"Both Canada and North America." Now I'm actually curious...where the hell do you think Canada is?

Pretty much ever driver in F1 has rich families that financed their early racing. There.is no cheap racing anywhere anymore. Why don't all of you pop into a F1 car and see how fast you are. I don't think he is that bad. Most of the drivers on the grid rely on personal sponsorship to get a ride.

Motor sports are Country Clubs for the folks that can buy there way into a seat. Drivers are by no means racers. Ask David Letterman if he still likes to pay the baby sitting bill.

Why do we expected lance to be at the level of champions? We all know hes a pay driver, so all i think he needs to do is not be a danger on track and somewhat keep pace, and he definately manages to pass here.

NAHH that thumbnail LOL

It's funny seeing people in the comments talking about "deserving" drivers not being there, EVERY single driver that's in F1 it's there not because they are the best that exist, but because they have money, and were born in the right place by pure lock, not all are billionaires for sure, but being middle class in a first world country or at least developing country means you HAVE money, and every single talented driver that were poor are automatically out, there's no questions, having billions of dollars it's in itself part of the attributes that you are born with, reaction time, size, talent, physical potential, all are inherited, but people complain about the money, like everything else wasnt given by his parents as well, of course you can work hard to improve what you got, but that holds true to money as well, face it, money is one of the most important attributes for you to become an F1 driver, the kid could be vastly worst, and there's literally hundreds of drivers that scored less points that got in F1 the "proper" way. I won't say I feel sad for the guy, because fuck that, he is a billionaire F1 driver, but the level of hate he gets it's not that justified.

Not the thumbnail

He might've bought his way into F1 but his efforts are evident in races. Understandably, he has the backing of his billionaire dad so his seat is under no threat. But unlike, Maze spin, this guy puts himself out there despite abuses hurled over him and has statistically shown good performance, if not the best. Yes, he has some behavioral problems like a rich spoiled guy, but we have to consider the highly stressful race situations a driver is in. It's not an easy task to maintain your composure during the race and money can never buy that. Money might've helped with his entry into f1, but the place where Lance stands today is more because of his performance and less coz of Lawrence's money.

As a Canadian we do not claim the Stroll's as our own.

1:15 Isn't Canada in north america?

Kinda strong on nikita mazespin

in 2 seasons something will happen between stroll and his teammate, which could be anybody theses days, his teammate is gone and money-saving stroll, couldnt think of something funnier for lance, will still be there

Insane lap holy shit

Lawrence Stroll must be thinking daily, "How the fuck am I going to get rid of my son"

Nikita: Hold my beer

I think the video is a bit unfair. Anyone who can podium or even get P5 in F1 deserves to be there irrespective of how they got there.

I was friends with one of the owners daughters of a HUGE F1 team, most corrupt sport out there to say the least - this is from an MMA fan

Well he proves he is worthy of that spot.

they'll be able to keep him until they get enough investors or get a car good enough to actually compete for constructor/title. AT which point they'll be forced out.

We can complain and cry, but he is the one racing in F1 and we are not :(

Of course the window lic&er hits another barrier

It is a given that Lance is just an okay driver and trying his darnest to be at a level of the current greats. The place he occupies in F1 is just fair since to enter F1 you have to have money or talent to be hired. Lance's family does not bankrupt a country or enslave a nation just so he can afford to race. So, it is just fair. He is burning his own money from their various business empires and Lance has skills except he is not a Lewis or Max (yet) or maybe never but whatever he has the money so he races. If I was him, for sure I would do the same and many would want to be in his shoes.

It is not L. Stroll's fault that his father has an F1 team :) I wouldn't be a nıon-paid driver most probably and pursue something challenging for myself but it is no one's business to blame him for what he has chosen. For sure you can criticize him for being not talented and not deserving the seat. This is something else. I even criticized and believed Verstappen should not be in F1 when was keep crashing other drivers before his first championship winning year :)

He is not just there because his dad has money. He knows how to drive fast. With this title the Russian from Haas comes to mind.

He is a good driver his dad just needs to say perform or bye

Let's be honest. All F1 drivers come from money. Even Lewis' Dad who worked 2 jobs but they were extremely high paying executive jobs, not quite a "By day/By night" gig.

Lead thread throughout this video: *But for some strange reaaon, Lance was kept for* /insert year here/

UKposts is Funny. Every time I type the words " Window Licker " in the comments it pops up a message... lol

You missed a glaring and critical point. His dad paid for absurd amounts of private testing and coaching at every stage of his career and with the top teams in each category too no less. Each new series he entered he had had way, way more experience than his fellow rookies did on day one. Performance is a factor of raw talent, experience and commitment/effort. Lance is a terrible talent, but combined with far more experience than those around him, giving him an advantage to make up for his total lack of talent and as a result he was able to have some good results. He should never have gotten anywhere near an F1 cockpit, he never had the talent to warrant a chance.

Sounds like money wins the race over skill or talent.

This is all of racing. It's a rich person's sport and has always been. Some dads are just richer than others.
