Lance Stroll: "There's plenty of time ahead"

Lance Stroll was forced to sit out the second half of the day at Barcelona due to a spin at turn 9 early in the session. Williams had a lack of spare parts and were therefore forced to halt their testing for the day.

Stroll says he just lost the car on the exit, and didn't touch anything to bring about the spin.

"I was just pushing getting used to the car, and just lost the car a bit on the exit," the Canadian said. "I didn't touch anything, just went into the gravel, drove back to the pit-lane and unfortunately I had broke a little piece of my front wing.

"We had one front wing apparently so it is what it is and it's obviously a bit frustrating but there's plenty of time ahead, we're going to get back to it tomorrow and keep going from there."

Felipe Massa will be back in the car tomorrow where he will be hoping to add to his impressive tally of 103 laps from yesterday's session.

  • So it was nothing worse. Goods news for Williams I guess, looks like they have the reliability.
