Stroll particularly angry with own race engineer: 'Useless feedback!'

The first free practice session was less than 15 minutes underway when Stroll said on the radio: "This is not a car. This is not a car right now." The frustration in the Canadian's voice was audible.

The 25-year-old driver reported at the end of FP1 that something was broken in his car and, moreover, he was not happy with the feedback he received from his race engineer Vizard:

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."

While Fernando Alonso set the seventh-fastest time in the weekend's first session, Stroll finished in P13.
