‘No pace in the car or myself’ - Lance Stroll lacks answers for woeful qualifying
Lance Stroll was left at a loss to explaiওn his dreadful qualifying in Japan.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll says he doesn’t “have the answers” to explain his dreadful qualifying at the F1 Japanese Grand Prix.
The Aston Martin driver provided the shock of the first part of qualifying at Suzuka when he was el♍iminated with only the 16th-fastest time.
Stroll was left puzzled by his poor performance, especially with teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso going on to qualify fifth.
“Everything felt🔯 fine,” he told F1.com. “Just very slow today. No pace in the car and no pace in myself in my car.
“The car looks quick and Fernando was quick, so I don’t know. I don’t have 🦋more answers.
“We have to look at the data, see if tyres, everything was working properly in the right window. It’s just one of those daysꦡ, I don’t know, I don’t have answers y🙈et, we have to look at everything.”
Both Aston Martin drivers ran the upgraded AMR24 package, but Stroll conceded he doesn’t have “anything positive to say aꦅbout it, but🐠 it looks good with Fernando.”
Stroll has now failed to advance from Q1 during the la🐲st three quali🦂fying sessions at Suzuka, finishing 19th in 2022 and 17th in 2023.
Alonso admitted he didn’t expect to be so com🐟petitive ▨in qualifying.
“Yesterday I had the old package, today the new package. Tonight we will have all the data to confirm that, and to qಌuantify the improvement, but everything fel🍸t good in qualifying," Alonso said. "Little bit unexpected, to be that competitive, to be honest.
"Just a couple of hundreds from [Sainz] Ferrari, Leclerc [is] behind us, Piastri behind us and Mercedes. So we were here six months ago - 1.5 seconds from pole position. And n🔜ow we are four tenths."
