Aston Martin must consider Stroll exit unless pace improves – Rosberg (www.motorsportweek.com)

2016 Formula 1 World Champion Nico Rosberg asserts that Aston Martin will have to consider dropping Lance Stroll if he fails to reduce the deficit to his team-mate.

Stroll recovered from missing the entirety of pre-season testing with two broken wrists to come home sixth in Bahrain before following that up with fourth place in Australia.

However, the Canadian’s form has slumped since and he has been unable to match new team-mate Fernando Alonso, who has notched seven podiums to Stroll’s zero.

The margin between the two Aston Martin drivers currently stands out at 123 points, with only the Red Bull pairing separated by more with eight rounds remaining this year.

How do they write an entire article like that without mentioning that the team is owned by Lance's billionaire dad?

Whether or not you think Stroll got where he is based on pure nepotism, it's pretty unlikely his dad would fire him and continue running the team with another pair of drivers.
