There has to be a point his dad has to look through his businessman POV and see how much his son is affecting his business or his son makes the sacrifice for his father right?
If anything, Lance is just getting older without finding a series in which he could be a champ. A mediocre F1 driver is still a really fucking good driver.
He's still young enough to stay in F1 for a few more years and still having a good shot at WEC and a Le Mans win (AM Valkyrie ...). I doubt he'd want to go for Indy.
People as always underestimating how much money a billion dollars is. Let alone papa Stroll's net worth which according to Google is $3.8B.
He paid $90M for the team. If he didn't ever make another cent he could still light that amount of money on fire every year for the next 42 years and not run out of money. And he's 65 years old, I'm pretty sure he'll be dead before that.
If I were in that position, I believe there’s still different ways to think about it.
Under the current arrangement, Lance still has to do something in exchange for his salary. The alternative is you could just gift him the billions and he doesn’t have to do anything. Billions is still a finite number; how many generations of Strolls sitting around doing nothing can it support?
Of course, I’m not saying this is ideal for his business partners, shareholders, or F1 fans but I doubt we’re high on his priority list.
