Stroll makes STATEMENT on his racing return after Singapore crash

Lance Stroll has confirmed that he is ‘ready to race’ at the Japanese Grand Prix after missing last week’s race following a crash in qualifying.

At the Singapore Grand Prix, as the Canadian driver attempted to make it out of Q1 he pushed too hard and sent the car hurtling into the barriers.

The car was severely damaged, and a huge amount of debris flew onto the track.

Luckily Stroll walked away from the scene unhurt, but the team later announced that he was still ‘feeling the effects’ of the massive crash and would sit out the race the next day.

He wrote: “Thank you for all the kind messages. Ready to race this weekend.”

Time for redemption

Stroll will be looking to boost his performance this weekend after a few difficult weeks.

The last time the Canadian driver finished in the points was a P9 result at the Belgian Grand Prix in July, which was followed by a string of bad results in the Netherlands, Italy and Singapore.

His team-mate Fernando Alonso, on the other had, has achieved top-ten finishes in the Netherlands and Italy, earning second place in the Dutch Grand Prix.
