The impact was very violent. The Aston Martin is reduced to the status of a wreck. The last three minutes of Q1 were quite crazy. The track offered more grip during this period than at the beginning of the session. All the drivers then went back out of the pits to ensure their passage to Q2.<\/p>\n
Haas estimated a six-tenths improvement in track conditions, but it was well beyond that. Yuki Tsunoda is actually the only one to have gone below the minute 32 mark. Therefore, all his colleagues have stepped up their pace. Some too much, including Lance Stroll.<\/p>\n
The Canadian, before his last attempt, was among the eliminated and was trying to make it to Q2. But he was struggling in the final sector. He narrowly missed hitting the wall at turn 16 before losing control of his Aston Martin between the last two corners of the circuit.<\/p>\n
The green car violently crashed into the wall on the edge of the track, which caused the single-seater to disintegrate. The driver’s head hit the protections surrounding him very hard. Nevertheless, he managed to get out of his transformed car wreck on his own.<\/p>\n
The red flag was raised to take care of the driver, to remove the car, and to repair the protective walls.<\/p>\n
The Canadian will have to undergo medical tests to confirm whether or not he has suffered a concussion. This is to determine if he will be able to participate in the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday, September 17th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
