> Lance Stroll concluded the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix from a P13 grid start to a P14 finish for Aston Martin, completing 57 laps and scoring no points.

Lance Stroll's outing at the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix saw the Canadian driver navigate the Yas Marina Circuit to a P14 finish, one lap down from the race winner. Starting from P13 on the grid, Stroll aimed to convert his qualifying position into points for Aston Martin, but the race unfolded with limited opportunities for significant advancement. His fastest lap of "1:28.604" on lap 42, ranked 11th overall, indicated moments of pace, yet it wasn't enough to break into the top ten. The race proved challenging for Aston Martin as a whole, with teammate Fernando Alonso securing a P9 finish and two points, highlighting a performance gap within the team on this particular weekend. The intricacies of tire strategy and track position at Yas Marina often dictate outcomes, and for Stroll, the race concluded without a championship points contribution.
