Canadian driver Lance Stroll was attempting to avoid elimination in Q1 when he lost control of his car on the outside curb of the final corner, crashing into the barrier and ending up on the start-finish straight. Stroll acknowledges that he was pushing hard to make up time after being three-tenths slower than needed to advance to Q2. However, he also points out other factors that contributed to his incident, such as being held at the weighbridge and encountering traffic during his final run. Stroll expresses frustration and recognizes the challenge ahead for his team.
