A statement released by Aston Martin read: “Over the course of the past six weeks Lance has been experiencing pain in his hand and wrist, which his medical consultant believes is in relation to the procedure he underwent in 2023.
“As a result his medical team have confirmed that he will not race tomorrow and he will undergo a procedure to rectify these issues before focusing on his recovery.”
Stroll sustained fractures and a broken toe after a cycling accident during the 2023 pre-season, which led to him undergoing surgery followed by a process of rehabilitation. He went on to make his return in time for the first race of the campaign.
