Stroll is not feeling well and skips FP3; Hulkenberg has already been called

Racing Point have announced that Lance Stroll is not feeling well. The Canadian is sitting out the third free practice session but it is not yet clear whether it is due to COVID-19 or another type of illness. However, it seems he might miss out on qualifying, so Nico Hülkenberg has been called to replace him.

It is the second time this year that a Racing Point does not appear at the start of an F1 session. Albert Fabrega has reported that Hulkenberg has already been called. 

UPDATE: @lance_stroll is not feeling 100% this morning and will therefore not participate in FP3. His condition will be assessed after the session to evaluate whether he is fit to drive, at which point the team will confirm plans for Quali.#F1 #EifelGP
