Stroll Furious with Race Engineer: ‘Useless Feedback!’ Causes Frustration

Lance Stroll was really upset after the first practice in Baku.

His car, the AMR24, did not perform well at all, and his race engineer Andrew Vizard also felt the heat.

During the session, which had barely started, Stroll vented on the radio: “This is not a car. This is not a car right now.” You could hear how frustrated he was.

By the end of FP1, Stroll said something was broken in his car. He wasn’t happy with Vizard’s feedback either:

Vizard: “So Lance, just looking across cars, it’s really sector one [where we lost out], so it’s…”
Stroll: “Yeah, braking turn one, too late, but it’s early turn two, all the things…”
Vizard: “Yeah exits one and two, braking turn three a little bit as well. But you are the same…”
Stroll: “Useless feedback.”

Practice Session Results:

While Fernando Alonso managed to secure the seventh-fastest time in that session, Stroll ended up in P13.

Fans might think this news is quite disappointing for Stroll.

It’s interesting how sometimes even small issues can lead to big frustrations.

What do you think about Stroll’s reaction?
