-Lance, probably.
I want stroll out of f1 as much as the next guy, but that looks like a really late reminder to lose 4 seconds?
Interesting. Didn’t see this mentioned anywhere before. Was wondering how come Stroll finished ahead of Alonso. Still don’t know what led to this though :)
Stroll caught up to Alonso with fresher tyres and Aston let him go to try and catch yuki. He caught yuki on the lap but couldn’t pass him. Should have switched on the last corner but didn’t. From what little team radio I heard, Aston too left it until too late to get him to swap by. Still pretty childish by Stroll for one point.
This is a bit of a nothingburger imo. Stroll had fresher tyres so AMR asked Alonso to let him pass to see if he could catch Yuki. He couldn’t, but he was only like 0.6 seconds behind him on the final lap. It’s a bit weird if anything to even call for the swap back, seeing as it was so late.
That shouldn’t be a thing in the first place so I say good on Stroll
Could this be the end of the road for plucky Canadian Lance Stroll?
Probably not, no.
