The 24-year-old Canadian lost control of his As൲t෴on Martin through the final corner at the end of Q1 and smashed into the barriers, causing extensive damage to his car. 

Despite emerging from the violent 150mph crash unscathed and being cleared by the on-site medical team,𓆏 Stroll withdrew from the event after Aston Martin said he was “sti🙈ll sore”. 

Speaking to media on his return to the F1 paddock ahead ofཧ this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prixꦜ, Stroll explained his call. 

“Much b💯etterꦅ than I felt on Sunday, I’m feeling OK now,” he said.

“[The feeling was] just everywhere. I was fine, I was healthy to race, but I wasn’t physically feeling good enough to do Singapore, which is the hardest race of the ye💛ar.

“I felt it creeping up on me on Saturday night and I knew it wasn’t going to be fun waking up on🍰 Sunday.”

Stroll add🤡ed: “I went t💞hrough all the concussion protocols and did all my tests and stuff.

“They just [said], ‘See how you ﷽feel later in the night’ and all t𝕴hat stuff and then make a decision tomorrow.”

Stroll, who was due to start 20th and last, insisted he had no regrets missing out on a potential recovery drive t🎉o the points. 

“There’s always an opportunity on Sunday to race and try to 🦩score some points,” Stroll said. 

“We saw drivers come from pretty far back on Sunday and 𒉰manage to climb through the field to score poiܫnts.

“You never know what’l🧔l happen. If I wou𒁃ld’ve felt fine and really good, I would’ve raced. 

"But I just ൲di♎dn’t really feel like it was the right thing to do and I think it would’ve delayed my recovery to coming here and feeling 100%.”
