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.

Lance is so slow he could barely keep up with Sebastian Vettel.

The hell is that supposed to mean. Vettel is not some random driver they pulled off the street. He is one of the best drivers of all time, same as Alonso.

It means that Stroll came much closer to matching the performance of Vettel than his detractors would like to admit, and Alonso has more talent than the entire field right now excepting possibly Verstappen,
