@@lachmack8967 If the price to pay of developing a struggling middle of the pack car into the arguably second quickest car on the grid, and putting alonso on the podium yet again multiple times, is having his son turn up, get carried by said car and call it a weekend, then that is the cheapest price I've ever seen
If he had a high business IQ he would kick his son to the curb, cos because of him they are losing second place in the constructors. Talk about bad business decisions.
If it wasn't for Lawrence, Aston Martin wouldn't have come back to F1 and in such a fashion. Already two podium positions thus far. More season to be had! Exciting time for Aston Martin the brand.
Let’s be honest, Lawrence is a psycho business man, if Lawrence becomes champion in F1 with Alonso, I would go balls out for Alonso, but I would despite the fact he won being arrogant and throwing money at it, that being said, I’m not a difficult person 😅
@@thomassievers3362 Lawrence does havw rhe money, but he also has a vision about Aston Martin. So far Aston was the James Bond car… thats it. Great cars, but nothing interesting. He wants to use f1 to reimagine and reignite the Aston Martin brand and bringn it on par with Ferrari, and so far he is doing a great job with that
Did nobody look into him and see what he has done in his 40 years of business? I’m so confident in him I bought Aston Martin shares as soon as it was announced he’d bought a stake of the company
Having so much fun watching Alonso stand on the podium this year! Sounds like Stroll is using F1 as a real opportunity to showcase the brand to dealers & customers, while also potentially allowing tech to trickle down to the mid engine cars.
I initially wasn't a fan of Lance and Lawrence Stroll because I wanted to see Felipe Nasr stay in F1 after 2016- I've come around. The man is passionate and it's been great for F1 that they've been involved. I'm sure it'll turn around for Aston Martin too.
This man is truly impressive. How he can go in and input a roadmap for not only growing Aston Martin but turn it around is amazing. And even hearing him speak is cool.
Same buddy… I think we are part of a few people that actually knew who he was and what he’s done in the past. And therefore believe in this project. And now he has newey onboard too
As an entrepreneur and owner, I will put my money always on an owner and entrepreneur of this caliber. I have great respect what they have done with the F1 team and hiring Alonso was a brilliant move from a sports standpoint but also a marketing standpoint. Alonso's performance gives great credibility to the brand. As a RB fan my self I hope for a podium shares by RB and Aston Martin. It helps that Max and Fernando have great respect for each other.
Insanely smart guy right here. Look at how they've done since... highs and lows, of course... but showing great promise for the future. Amazing amazing knowledge from him and his team.
It was a great interview, with a "great" job by Robert Frank who started heavily questioning Lawrence, but got back some strong and positive perspective for the company, and a "great" job by the editor who had only one job, and missed up showing some F1 images with a Red Bull car instead of an Aston Martin!
He's done a great job. But the brand needs to take a new direction with its sports cars and make them something a younger audience desires to own. I think a new designer is key to this, Marek has done a great job in the past but Vantage has been a disappointment. Lightweight, modern luxury is the key.
He explained that. It takes an understanding of IPO and resultant speculation to comprehend the answer. The tech bubble and crash of 2000 -ish era is a perfect lesson.
@@TheHi_King Agree. He wasn't his old self and his activism was maybe not great for the brand. Alonso will certainly bring a lot of attention to the team. Hopefully not purely negative.
the share price was £19 thats true however it is not true it has returned to where it was - it is about 10% of where it was and it has improved from 5% to 10%
He's done well landing Mercedes, because without that he'd be DOA. The significance of that partnership can not be understated from an Aston Martin corporation standpoint.
I wish he would bring Aston Martin to Indycar. He'd actually save money while watching the British manufacturer racing to win. Plus, the Indy 500 is special in a way that no F1 race ever could surpass. Even though I know that F1 rewards more money, but I'd rather see Aston Martin win the Indy 500 than make over millions of dollars in F1 despite never winning a race at all
Indy may have 1 race but there’s more value in itself just being in f1 then Indy car and even more if you are competitive and the more on top of that if you are winning championship that Indy doesn’t come close too I’m not bashing Indy car I love the series but it’s not the same
The British Ferrari that became a Canadian one. And one paticiular Spanish samurai that is turning things around on the F1 grid. Looks promising at the moment.
Well all credit needs to go Andy Palmer then the DBX was his child. There have been no new Aston’s yet since him if you ignore the F1 car itself and that’s something they bought so not exactly a whole new car. The revised DB11 in the form of the DB12 however is a long over due upgrade to that model and does show considerable promise with minimal development overheads compared to an outright new platform. It shows great sales potential and thank goodness it’s not an EV that would cost a pointless fortune.
what Aston need is a parallar set up where its heritage can grow into modern luxury, and its racing heritage should be based on bespoke making. Im not a fan of OEM all sports car, the vantage feels like a M5.
Unfortunately this hasn't aged well. The stock is doing terrible. Fallen down since last fall. There is no one reason, more of a speculators getting cold feet. The debt is still large but it was knows when they agreed to it. The company rebuild is on schedule, the few issues were the Valkyre deliveries which was less then planned for 2021. The one-off models are all sold out in advance. The volume maker DBX is selling well. The electrification is on schedule, for 2024 hybrid models, 2025 full electric cars. Complete electric line-up by the end of the decade is possible. The new F1 factory is being built with wind tunnel. The issue is the 2022 car being a dog, due to the porpoising and the MB power unit being the weakest of all 4 at the moment. If they solve the bouncing issue and MB cranks out a little more power, the team should go up to the mid-field again. Hate to see the current car being so beautiful and yet, so weak. Aston Martin's prestige around the world is being restored. More and more people look at the brand with aspiration and their cars are appearing on wall-papers and listed as dream cars. They need a 2nd model next to the DBX that will bring in volume and steady cash. Something that they can produce with ease and based on tried solid technology. Mr. Lawrence saved the F1 team - Force India - and saved Aston Martin, the legendary British icon. If you think about this, he is a hero of the automotive world. Lots of people ridicules the team at the moment and say that FI was better. When ? 5-6 years ago. FI was falling down the points and most engineers and talents left the company. When Mr. Stroll bought the company, it was in pieces. Not in 4th place. The car was old , outdated, so was the factory and its remaining employee's were not getting paid and were frustrated. He literally saved the team from being extinct. Very similar story with Aston Martin. They had a bunch of good idea's but the company was lost and in dire straits. Give him time to show both F1 team and AM to be perfect, but even now at the 2 year marks both alive and well, but maybe not at the performance level where we needed. The stocks should start rising again once the world issues are calming.
Problem is that Lance Stroll is not in the league of top F1 drivers like Alonso that has had several podiums in the same car Lance will need to go soon
lawrence stroll managed to turn aston martin around despite having his son, who is less competent than the likes of sainz, gasly, norris yet still gets the job done just enough, representing the f1 team
Buy Aston Martin Stock! 📈 🏎 They are dead cheap right now, Lawrence Stroll WILL make this Company THE new brand for superrich (he is the only one that can do this), they have AMAZING new cars (Valkyrie, Aston SUV) and with every good result in an F1 race, the stock will go up. This is more than just a great opportunity, I expect Aston Martin Stock to go from now 3,5 € to maybe 40 € (which it already was) within the next 150 days! 😃
Who else here couldn't care two squats about the business side of AM but is an F1 fan watched the video because they saw Lawrence Stroll in the thumbnail?
I don't think the SUV has done it all that much good. If Aston wanted to follow the Porsche model of turning their fortunes around then they would :- - make a two seat convertible (Boxster model) - make a SUV that is semi-affordable (Macan model) The Aston SUV is very expensive, too expensive for 98% of people.
Using Yahoo finance stock charts for Aston Martin. The all time share performance is showing as -98%. The one year share performance is showing as -77%. Again according to Yahoo Finance. Their road cars do not turn a profit. The most obvious outlook that I would see if for AML to be bought up by a big player e.g. Mercedes and run as a subsidiary division.
Not gonna lie. Lawrence Stroll had high business IQ. He has basically revived Aston Martin to a new height in a span of 3 to 4 years. Respect.
Yeah now he has to wake up and sack his son
@@lachmack8967 If the price to pay of developing a struggling middle of the pack car into the arguably second quickest car on the grid, and putting alonso on the podium yet again multiple times, is having his son turn up, get carried by said car and call it a weekend, then that is the cheapest price I've ever seen
If you're talking about the car brand, i don't think hes done much. Most of the cars that have come out were in development before his tenure.
If he had a high business IQ he would kick his son to the curb, cos because of him they are losing second place in the constructors. Talk about bad business decisions.

He has changed the company for the better.
Nice interview! Now have greater respect for Lawrence Stroll and what he is doing with Aston Martin. Becoming a fan of the A-M F1 team too.

Dude is a business guru
Call him arrogant, call him what you want. The man delivers! I call him ambitious and confident.
I see S.P.E.C.T.R.E. agent Number 2 from Thunderball is back to his villainous behavior. Big fan of this true champ of AML. BULLISH

I mean take a look at the upcoming mid-engine Valhalla. That car gives me goosebumps!
I was expecting him to say "you have me for 5 minutes, fire ahead".
Lance maybe is an average driver, but Lawrence is our treasure
Aged well . Congrats!
The man has done a great job. Just ask him. He'll tell you.
Aston Martin is my dream to own just any car from there. Thank u mr stroll for saving Aston Martin
1 year later it’s paying off well!
10,000 Astons per year ! very different from when I worked at Newport Pagnell and we produced about 100 cars a year
90% down on the share price
He explained that. It takes an understanding of IPO and resultant speculation to comprehend the answer. The tech bubble and crash of 2000 -ish era is a perfect lesson.
caught the bottom. If it goes lower again I'm buying more. Might even buy more if we go up a bit. [analysis pending...🤣]

There’s a lot of people (leftists) who are down on successful people like Stroll. He’s a billionaire because he knows what he’s doing and get results.
Leftists !? 😂😂😂
Richest Santa in the world
More like Jewish Santa! Yup! It’s true! Lawrence & Lance happened to be Jewish for those who didn’t know.
The field needs to check their mirrors, Aston Martin is closing hard and fast.
Now make one more smart decision: take Lance out of the F1 car and put an actuall F1 driver in it.
Coming from f1 you can see Lawrence got character and everything what it takes to make it unlike his coluorless son.

Gotta be a billionaire to pull off a knit tie
That's a Merc copy right there, i am sure one for Ferrari is it lying someplace in Lawrance garage.
