When Racing Point began planning for the 2021 season with Sebastian Vettl and when the separation from Sergio Perez was finalized after the end of this year’s championship, the Mexican was very shocked. For a long time, it was unclear whether he would stay in Formula 1 next year. But there was never any heavy bloodshed between him and the team. It was all the more heartwarming to say goodbye to the season finale in Abu Dhabi, as shown by the clip the team last posted on social media.

Lance Stroll entered Formula 1 in 2017 on the Williams team, at the time he was 18 years old. Prior to that, however, he dominantly won the Formula 3 title. In 2019, he transferred to the Racing Point team, which his father Lawrence bought in mid-2018. Lance had a mixed season this year. He won his first pole position in Turkey, finished on the podium in Monza, and was unable to take part in the race at the Nürburgring due to a coronavirus infection. But he also had quite a bit of bad luck, as he was involved in many incidents, most of which he was not guilty of. In an interview for the Beyond the Grid podcast, Stroll responded to the criticism and commented, "I like it, I'm full of it. If you don't deal with criticism, then it consumes you inside. I think I've learned to I accept and use as one
