Indeed, this Sunday, during the race, the car once again made an impromptu encounter with a wall, at a place that was unexpected to say the least, since the impressive accident took place in the middle of a straight line. A Canadian pilot error? Quickly, idling started the trail of a mechanical problem on his car, on the rear, with either a puncture or a suspension problem. Whatever the reason, the shock was violent, but fortunately, after a few long moments immobilized in his Aston Martin, Stroll ended up extricating himself from it, without the slightest apparent problem. Simply the disappointment of not being able to go to the end of a grand prix where he was in 4th position, with worn tires however. The race, she,was obviously interrupted by the intervention of a safety car to allow the cleaning of the track, littered with debris.
