Sumario:Vector boson production in $pp$ collisions at 7 TeV has been extensively studied by ATLAS. Recent results include the measurement of Drell-Yan differential production cross section and of jets and heavy flavours production in association with vector bosons. The Drell-Yan cross-section measurements are compared to NNLO QCD predictions corrected for NLO EW effects calculated using various PDF sets. Measurement of $W+c$ production cross section probes the strange quark density. An overview of these results is given.
