Unrest continues at Aston Martin: CEO leaves after just two years
- GPblog.com
Lawrence Stroll has already said goodbye to the second CEO of his time at Aston Martin. Tobias Moers was Andy Palmer's replacement two years back, but Moers too has now left. 76-year-old Amedeo Felisa will be his replacement.
Things remain unsettled within Aston Martin. At the beginning of 2020, Stroll bought a share in Aston Martin and has been increasing that share since. The father of Formula 1 driver Lance Stroll also christened his F1 team in the colours of the British brand and in this way ensures visibility again in the premier class of F1.
Unrest within Aston Martin
Within the brand, however, rumours persisted that Moers will have to step down as CEO after two years. Stroll denied this earlier by stating that he works very well with Moers, but now the Briton has departed, as reports Autocar.
Felisa will be the successor to Moers. Felisa worked at Ferrari until 2016 and was an important confidant of chairman Luca de Montezemolo, who in turn has a good relationship with Lawrence Stroll. It is therefore not surprising that Stroll has chosen the Italian.
