Lance Stroll is a Canadian-born driver who does have interests in multiple sports outside of Formula One. The NFL is one of them as he supports New York Giants.
New York Giants is an American Football based legendary team established over 97 years ago. They have won four Super Bowls with the most recent one in 2012.
Lance Stroll on being a lucky charm for New York Giants
Speaking about NFL, Lance Stroll explains that currently, he is unable to watch the games due to time constraints. However, the two games he watched were when the New York Giants became the champion.
He was talking about the impressive 2008 and 2012 Super Bowls showdown. The New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots on both occasions.
It was Tom Brady’s team taking the defeat to Eli Manning’s MVP performance. Stroll acknowledges the past championship, however, would like the team to perform better in the near future.

The present similarities between the Canadian driver and the New York based NFL team
Just like the New York Giants, even Lance Stroll will be looking to change his fortunes in the near future in Formula One. He had an underwhelming season with Aston Martin.
He has over six years of experience now as a Formula One driver and should be at the peak of his driving performance. In the 2022 season, the team was unable to help him with a competitive car.
Now retired four times world champion Sebastian Vettel went through the same fate. However, with Fernando Alonso in the mix now, Stroll should gear up and aim to dominate the midfield of the championship through his driving.
