Aston Martin F1 star Lance Stroll ruled out after shock Monaco crash
Lance Stroll was ruled out of the first practice session at the Monaco Grand Prix due to a crash with Charles Leclerc. The collision at the Fairmont Hairpin resulted in significant damage to Stroll’s car. Charles Leclerc was able to quickly repair his front wing and resume practice, while Stroll’s Aston Martin required extensive repairs including the gearbox, diffuser, door, and rear suspension. The incident was deemed entirely Stroll’s fault by Karun Chandhok and his team. Stroll’s missed track time at Monaco, a challenging circuit, will have a substantial impact on his weekend, especially as qualifying approaches. Additionally, the collision occurred during Adrian Newey’s first trackside appearance with Aston Martin, adding further complexity to Stroll’s already challenging situation.
