Stroll labelled Aston Martin’s “weakness” by critical Rosberg
Lance Stroll will start Sunday’s grand prix at the Losail circuit from 17th place after being eliminated from Q1 during Friday’s qualifying session. He will only line up in 16th place for Saturday’s sprint race. Stroll’s furious response to his Q1 elimination, where he seemed to push his trainer, made headlines. Compared to his teammate Fernando Alonso, who has scored 174 points, Stroll has only scored 47 points, and former world champion Nico Rosberg believes that Stroll’s performances are hurting Aston Martin in the constructors’ championship. Rosberg also criticized Stroll’s angry outburst and short interview on Friday, stating that if Stroll were any other driver, he would be out for next year. However, Rosberg acknowledged that Stroll deserves to be there, as he has shown he is quick enough and was competitive with Alonso at the beginning of the season. The situation surrounding Stroll is seen as a difficult one.
