Aston Martin's Lance Stroll has given a further update on his injuries ahead of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. 

The Canadian driver broke his wrist and toe just a couple of weeks before the 2023 season-opening race in Bahrain. Despite this, he manages to make an incredible recovery to still take part alongside his new teammate Fernando Alonso. Stroll finished in sixth place with Alonso bagging third place on the podium. 

After the race, Stroll shared more information and video footage of his recovery from the accident to being race fit. Now a couple of weeks down the line, Stroll has spoken about how he is doing. 

He explained during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix drivers' press conference:

"[It was] pretty painful on the Monday after, but it was a good weekend for the team so worth a bit of pain.

"I'm getting better every day. Feeling better every day. So I think the worst part is behind me and you know, still not 100%. It takes a bit of time for these things to heal, but I'm definitely feeling much better than I was 10 days ago.

"Yeah it was nice to get in the car in Bahrain, at least for the race to get a few laps under my belt and not ideal missing the test. 

"The car was really competitive throughout the whole weekend in Bahrain, I think the guys have done an incredible job over the winter to build this car. And we're still learning about it. 

"So it's still a work in progress and I'm excited to see how we go this weekend. It is a very different kind of track. Bahrain's low speed and here's much higher speeds."
