Speak💞ing after qualifying in Bahrain, Stroll spoke about his accident and the extent of his injuries, explaining that he had br♛oken his toe as well.
“It’s been pretty insane,” Stroll told Sky. “It’s exactly t🉐wo weeks today since my crash, my bike crash, twelve days since surgery, came out of the hospital a week ago.
“I couldn’t move my hands, I couldn’t walk, I𝓀 broke my 🔯toe.
“Bahrain looked like it was very far awa🦩y at the time and the light at the end of thꦺe tunnel was very far at the time. Really just grateful to be here and back in the car.”
Stroll admitted that Saturday was 🐽the first day he was able to walk without any pain.
“Today is actually the first day I’m feeling my toes good enough to walk on it, but it doesn’t hurt in the car, unless I hit a few bumps, but🌠 it’s oka𒆙y,” he added.
“I’m feeling better every day. Still just doing a lot of physio, icing my wrists. Every day is a 10 percent impr🌊ovement kind of thing and tomo𒅌rrow should be good.
💖“We have a great car in the long runs, so I’m looking forward to it.”
