“I’m fine. Shit, the car was destroyed. “
After the session, Nicholas Latifi said, “It’s very obvious to me. I just watched the video.”
“I was just trying to get the outlap back in preparation, but when I lined up with him he seemed to change his mind.”
“He was pushing and was told to let him through to open the lap. I said,’He looks like he’s given up on the lap, so I want to continue my preparation lap.’ rice field”
“So I got back to him, there was obviously a big gap, and when I passed there, for some reason he decided to turn around. That’s clear in the video. Say more. Never “
When asked regarding the incident, Lance Stroll refrained from openly blaming Nicholas Latifi, but did not accept his responsibility and claimed it was the result of “terrible timing.”

“It falls to the right, so when the truck falls there, it feels like the car sinks inward.”
“I think the timing was terrible because he was accelerating. For me the track was falling to the right so I contacted there.”
