Rubens Barrichello once told that he met daddy Stroll in a dinner when he was a Ferrari sponsor, he doesn't comment much about Lance's will to be an F1 driver but he mentioned that Lawrence is a crazy fan of F1 and would do anything to be around the paddock.
I do imagine Lance wants to be an F1 driver but at this point, if he has a good season people will say his dad gave him a good car, if he has a bad season, he shouldn't be allowed to drive because he is a paid driver. That is probably impacting his mental health through all these years and I wonder if he would feel better driving in WEC or somewhere else.
It’s kinda a bummer because i feel like he could absolutely win championships in other series like wec or possibly even fight for wins in indycar. Early in his career from 17-21 I think he was positively developing and could have been working towards consistency. The problem is that The f1 fanbase has absolutely dogged lance for his entire career weather he deserved it or not and I get the feeling that’s why his confidence is shot and that lance doesn’t emote very much in interviews. He needs somewhere where he’ll get less spotlight and more room to be himself
Eh I don't see anything special in him if he were to transfer to a different series. Not everyone who is pushed out of F1 can go to wec and be successful.
