    While a cool photo, the distance that wheel is from the car would suggest it’s not the moment of impact.

    I watched the quali delayed and when I saw how long the session lasted (1h47m was the broadcast) I knew someone had crashed and I immediately thought of Stroll. While not quite as bad as Latifi or Mazespin, the guy is out of his depth in F1.

      While Lance is not an elite driver, I dont think it’s fair to say someone who has had 3 podium finishes in F1 and who is currently in ninth place in the drivers standings is out of his depth. He’s a middle of the pack driver capable of the occasional above average performance.

      It’s ridiculous to suggest “he is out of his depth in F1”.

      Yes, he clearly isn’t doing a good job this year. Lance clearly drove better in the past. But with how hard he was pushing on that lap, there wasnt much he could do against that snap oversteer.

      I don’t watch F1 anymore, is he as bad as the Maldozer?

        No - he’s a very capable midfielder who deserves his spot on the grid but is never going to win a championship.

          Ok, because I’m from Quebec so I had heard about him but never negatively, but odds are there’s a bit of patriotism going on with that…
