The FIA confirmed that F1 star Lance Stroll will start from the pit lane at the Canadian Grand Prix after Aston Martin changes
Aston Martin has faced significant power unit issues this year, which are well-known to those following the sport. The repercussions of the troubled start to the season are still being felt, despite modifications to prevent further vehicle damage. Lance Stroll received a grid penalty for exceeding his season limit on new energy store and control electronics units unusually early in the season, resulting in a pit lane start. Although changing these components would normally incur a ten-place grid penalty, the adjustments were made during parc ferme conditions. As a result, Stroll will not start in 36th, as expected, but rather from the pit lane, as per FIA regulations. Competitors have the option to contest decisions made by the Stewards within the specified time frame.
