Lawrence Stroll Claims Aston Martin will be in F1 for Decades

Aston Martin team boss Lawrence Stroll has reassured fans that the sports car brand will stay in F1 for decades, despite the sale of ownership stakes.

According to an announcement Monday, the car brand sold its ownership portion of the race team, and Lawrence Stroll injected yet more funding into the team as well.

The racing outlet raised millions with the sale of shares while maintaining the sponsorship deal.

"These moves demonstrate that Aston Martin's place on the Formula 1 grid is as secure as ever," Stroll said.

"AML recently re-committed to its long-term sponsorship and licensing agreement with AMF1, confirming that the legendary Aston Martin brand and its British racing green colours will compete in Formula One for decades to come."

"Raine will work closely with AMF1's commercial chief Jeff Slack to secure a strategic investor who can add long-term value to the team and the brand," they said.

The shares of Aston Martin on the stock market jumped 13% on Monday after the announcement of the sale, while Stroll managed to raise his ownership of Aston Martin to 33% from 27.7%.

The Aston Martin stock is down a total of 39% in 2025, which has led to 170 jobs being cut, around 5% of the workforce.

“By strengthening the balance sheet, this investment provides additional headroom to support our future product innovation and business transformation activities, which combined, will accelerate our progress into being a sustainably profitable company,” he added.
