P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Ralf Schumacher has not minced his words when it comes to Lance Stroll.
Ralf Schumacher believes it’s time for Lance Stroll to leave F1 due to his underwhelming performances.
Stroll finished 16th in the 2025 championship, with only 33 points compared to teammate Fernando Alonso’s 56.
During his nine seasons in F1, Stroll has not finished higher than 10th in the drivers’ championship and has only secured two podium finishes.
Schumacher emphasized that Stroll, despite being under contract until 2026 with Aston Martin, should not be in F1 anymore.
Aston Martin is aiming to capitalize on the 2026 regulation changes to improve their standings, with Adrian Newey taking over as team principal next season to lead this transformation.
