‘True Driver: Discovering Aston Martin’ relives the history of the British team now owned by Canadian tycoon Lawrence Stroll, from their arrival in the world of motor racing, when they were champions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, to their rise to fame . for the James Bond saga and its position as a luxury manufacturer and official supplier of the British royal house on a stage away from the circuits.
It was 2020 when businessman Lawrence Stroll, father of pilot Lance Stroll, took control of Aston Martin’s shares and set out to return it to the top of motorsport’s highest category. The Canadian acknowledged the British firm’s return to Formula 1: “The team is moving forward and our ambition is endless.”
Mike Krack, Aston Martin Team Principal, acknowledged in ‘True Driver’ that: “When we announced Fernando Alonso, the design office was silent for 15 minutes because of the excitement of the people. This is a reflection of the great illusion we feel”.
Pedro de la Rosa, a commentator for DAZN F1, joined the team this season as an ambassador and acknowledges that: “The engineers know that whatever state the car is in, it is always 100% driven.” The former pilot also points out that: “When a team invests, changes and, above all, wants to improve, that illusion that is visible in all departments is what really attracts”.

Team manager Mike Krack assures that: “If all the drivers had the same car, Fernando would be ahead.” Regarding this, Pedro de la Rosa affirms that: “Fernando can contribute many things, but the main one is speed. You can look at it from all angles, but ultimately what matters is speed, and constant speed.”
During the report, the Asturian was honest and pointed out that: “I don’t want to lose anything, and in motorsport there is only one winner. That is what pushed me to try it. In the new project there is a lot of investment and great enthusiasm from all over the world. Also, driving for a great brand like Aston Martin, an iconic brand, gives you pride in wearing the logo on your chest.”
