The Aston Martin driver suffered a poor weekend at Suzuka, finishing 12th as team-mate Fernando Alonso was sixth.

Despite a challenging weekend, Stroll was reflective and acknowledged it as one to forget, after a strong performance in Australia where he outperformed Alonso. Team boss Mike Krack defended Stroll, attributing the speed difference to factors like tyre conditions and traction.
