Aston Martin Lagonda is preparing to sell its minority stake in the Aston Martin Formula 1 team, with the transaction expected to close in Q3 2025. The deal, valued at £110 mln, places the Silverstone-based team’s overall worth at more than £2.4 bn, according to Bloomberg.
The sale aligns with Aston Martin Lagonda’s strategy to boost liquidity and follows its March announcement to offload shares. The brand will continue to sponsor the F1 team through a long-term commercial agreement, maintaining the “Aston Martin” name in the championship.
Lawrence Stroll’s Yew Tree Investments, already the team’s majority backer, is increasing its role in the road car division as well — set to raise its stake from 27.67% to 33%.
The F1 team, which evolved from Racing Point after Stroll’s 2018 acquisition of Force India, has recently undergone major expansion. This includes a new factory, a wind tunnel under development, and the high-profile recruitment of design legend Adrian Newey, who also became a part-owner.
Despite the share sale, the F1 outfit remains on solid ground, with further valuation growth expected. The team will become Honda’s official works outfit from the 2026 season.
