1997 F1 world champion Jacques Villeneuve has noticed a drastic shift in 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll’s demeanour.

Stroll🎀 has enjoyed his best start to an F1 season since being in the sport s🍬ince 2017.

The Canadian has scored🍸 all of Aston Martin’s 10 points in 2025.

Stroll drove brilliantly to secure sixth in Australia ♚as Aston Martin nailed their strategy choices.

In China, he finished nintꦜh, making the most of Ferrari’s double disqualification in Shanghai.

Still, Stroll has been a closer match for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso over one lap this year.

His improved form hasn𝓀’t gone unnoticed, nor his off-track personality.

One criticism often put towards Stroll is that he♍’s usua🎉lly too placid when speaking to the media or doesn’t seem to be enjoying himself.

As a result, pundits have often questioned whether he wants to remain ♏in F1 or if it’s just his father, Lawrence Stroll, pushing him to continue.

Villeneuve, ꦏwho is commentating for Sky Sports F1 this weekend, highlighted a chance in Stroll when speaking to Aston Martin boss Andy Cowell.

Villeneuve said to Cowell in Friday practice: “The car doesn’t look that bad early season, although you didn’t get all the points you wanted with Fer🦄nando losing some. You’ve had a very strong🌊 Lance.

“He’s smiling all♉ the time. We seem to see a very different driver.”

Cowell replied: “Lance has had a great start to the season. He’s got a huge amount of exper🅺ience🦹, and he’s feeding that into the team nicely and helping us learn this year and for next year.”
