Aston Martin driver Lance Stroll has opened up on his pit stop disaster during the Las Vegas Grand Prix, where he suffered a radio breakdown throughout the race, meaning his team didn't know when he was coming into the pit and vice versa.

Lance Stroll will have an Aston Martin seat “as long as he wants to be an F1 driver”, it has been claimed. Stroll’s performances alongside two-time world champion teammate Fernando Alonso have regularly come under fire, most recently after the Canadian crashed out of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix on the formation lap.

Verstappen starts fifth and Norris is sixth. Norris can additionally lose the title if he fails to outscore Verstappen by three points on the neon-lit street circuit that zips down the famed Las Vegas Strip.
