Lance Stroll was not in a particularly talkative mood as he was quizzed about the hand and wri♋st injury which ruled hi🐻m out of the F1 Spanish Grand Prix.

Stroll was forced to pull out of the last race in Barcelona after experiencing pain in his hands that was a legacy of an operation following a cycling accident ahead of the 2023 F1 season.

Few details of Stroll’s condition and recovery were provided by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aston Martin but the team confi⛄rmed he would ♏compete in his home race at this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix on Wednesday.

Stroll, who completed some laps in an old F1 car at Paul R⛎icard earlier this week, was quiet when he faced questions about the injury.

“It was bothering me for a few races at Imola, Monaco and then Barcelona was j꧒ust really brutal throughout the weekend,” he said on Thursday in Montreal.

“I got the procedure ꧂done and drove this week and I was feeling pretty good, so I’m confident.

Stroll said it hurt “a little, but it’s fine”, add✱ing it was “just the old injury I had a couple of years ago just started to bug me again. So got it sorted.”

The Canadian dow𝓰nplayed his attempts to drive through the pain but was not keen to divulge tooꦛ much information.

“As an athlete in any sport, I think you're always trying to push through pain, discomfort as muc🐟h as you can to try and get a good result at the end of the weekend,” he said.

“In that situation, I was struggling and I was trying to push through it, but I didn'🀅t feel sensible to push anymore. It felt like the damage was getting worse.

“I needed to do something more serious abouꦜt it. I don't really want to get into detail about what I had to do and how I had to do it because it's just my medical privacy and I like to keep that kind of confidential.

“All I can say for sure is I'm feeling a lot better and looꦍking forward to the race weekend.”

What really happened in Spain?

The BBC reported that Stroll had lost his temper inꦫ the team’s garage after he was kn𓄧ocked out of qualifying in Q2.

Stroll failed to get weight in t🌃he FIA garage and was given a warning by the stewards, before Aston Martin ಌannounced his withdrawal later that evening.

Aston Martin confirmed to that Stroll’s injury w💦as unrelated to the episode that is understood to have taken place in the team’s garage.

Asked if he was frustrated in tꦯhe moment, Stroll admitted: “I was frustrated for sure. Frustrated about my wrists and the la❀st three races from Imola and it was just inhibiting my driving.

"I knew that Sunday was going to be tricky, probably impossible. And at that p🉐oint I was, yeah, pretty frustrated about it.”
