Six races into the season, Stroll has yet to hit his stride with the Racing Point team, but he insisted that it’s not something to worry about.

“There’s definitely things on my side that I need to work on to get to grips with the car,” he said this week.

We’ve managed to score points in a couple of events, but we definitely want to be consistently in the points more often and fighting up at the front, that’s the goal.”
