Lance Stroll On "Rollercoaster" Australian Grand Prix As Aston Martin Continue Dominance

Lance Stroll speaks out on "rollercoaster" Australian Grand Prix.

Lance Stroll has reflected on the chaotic Australian Grand Prix where he just missed out on a podium finish with fourth place. 

Aston Martin has another incredible weekend in Melbourne with Stroll's teammate Fernando Alonso finishing in third place, which he has done for all three races so far this season. 

During his post-race interview, the Canadian driver spoke about the "rollercoaster of emotions" whilst applauding his team for their huge improvement from last season. He explained:

“I think we should be pleased with the result we’ve come away with today: third and fourth is great for the team. 

"It was a heavily disrupted race with red flags and a few big accidents, and neither Fernando nor I managed to stay clear of the drama. 

"I had a little bit of contact on the first lap, but we were running well until the first red flag was thrown. As we’ve seen across the weekend, it takes a while for the tyres to get up to temperature here and so on the second restart I locked up at turn three and ended up in the gravel. 

"Thankfully, the red flag had been waved before that point and I was able to retake my position for the final restart. This sport is a rollercoaster of emotions sometimes! 

"Overall, we’ve come away from a chaotic race with a solid haul of points for the team and to be second in the Constructors’ Championship after three races is very positive”

The British team are currently second in the constructors' championship with 65 points behind Red Bull with 123 points and ahead of Mercedes with 56 points. 

The next important F1 date is April 28-30 for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
