One of Aston Martin’s high-profile mechanics addresses the speculation around Lance Stroll
During the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix weekend, an Aston Martin F1 mechanic refuted claims that Lance Stroll had “sworn at team members.”
Stroll had to withdraw from the race due to pain in his hand and wrist, which was revealed by Aston Martin.
Reports indicated that Stroll damaged equipment in the garage and expressed frustration towards his colleagues after a disappointing qualifying session.
However, Aston Martin clarified that Stroll’s actions in the garage and his injury were unrelated, mentioning that he was upset with the qualifying result.
Mechanic Harry Rush defended Stroll on Instagram, denying the claim that Stroll had sworn at team members.
Stroll’s injury stemmed from a cycling accident before the 2023 F1 season, but he made a remarkable comeback for the Bahrain Grand Prix.
Despite struggling with his injury, Stroll managed to secure points finishes in Bahrain, Australia, China, and the Miami sprint race, outscoring his teammate Fernando Alonso in the 2025 championship standings.
