Aston Martin team principal Mike Krack believes it is important for the team to understand why Lance Stroll has been struggling recently compared to the earlier part of the season. Stroll had a strong start to the season, with three top-six finishes in the first seven rounds, but his form has dropped off since then. Krack wants to analyze the cause of this drop-off in form and determine if it is related to changes in the car throughout the season. Additionally, Stroll’s conduct in Qatar, where he pushed his performance coach and did not follow protocols, is being discussed by the FIA. Stroll himself believes the car has developed characteristics that are not to his liking, and Krack says experiments need to be done to understand this better. Although Aston Martin’s competitiveness has improved slightly, it wasn’t enough to score higher points in Qatar.
