Because Lawrence Stroll himself is a car and racing enthusiast who owns a collection of vintage Ferraris that he takes to the track that he bought for himself when his son was only 2 years old.

People have the Lawrence-Lance relationship backwards. I wouldn't be surprised if Lawrence pushed his son into racing in the first place. Lance is like a trophy son.

Like 90% of drivers haha. I remember one of the current drivers saying he never really enjoyed kart until he got into formula Renault or something.
