Stroll, who built his fortune, estimated by Forbes at $3.2 billion, by buying and growing fashion brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Michael Kors, lacks the motivation to further promote his son Lance's career, according to reputable sources.

Villeneuve to F1-Insider: “Lawrence has built his son’s own karting track, which was only 15 minutes walk away from the house. Nevertheless, Lance covered the distance every day by helicopter.”

Another insider, who used to be in a responsible position with a team, remembers in a similar way: “Father and son came to our factory to look at them: I have never experienced such an interested father and such a desactive son.”

Go gently caress yourself, Lance.

Surely it can't have been a literal 15 minute walk that was replaced by a helicopter ride, that's mad.

Lance being awful is probably the most he's cost his dad in his entire life so far - if Aston Martin had two good drivers they could have held onto 3rd in the championship rather than looking at sliding behind McLaren which is tens of millions of pounds difference in prize money.

I'm grappling the dynamics of that. I'm pretty sure that it would have been faster to walk than take a helicopter that short a distance.

Lance was driving in F1 at 18, and stopped karting at 15. Don’t think he was the one deciding where the helicopter flew.

This was actually their argument against banning it. They claimed no-one started smoking because of it, just switched brand.

I think the regulatory response was "Pull the other one, it's got bells on".

They’re both the bad guy.

But I’ve known a couple of rich kids like Lance. He is the type of overly entitled prick for which nothing has value. People like him are irritating to be around.

Just a hunch here but I'm willing to be Jacques harbours just a touch of resentment over the fact Lance's dad actually took an interest in his son's career instead of being completely absent.
