The impact ripped off his front wing and front right tyre, bringing out the red flag. Stroll had almost crashed moments earlier, locking up his tyres and almost striking the wall at turn seven. Reports on social media suggest Stroll had radioed his team to check for damage after his first incident. 

There are claims Stroll suggested the team pitted to check if the car was okay but was told there was no time to pit and to continue on another lap. Qualifying restarted around ten minutes later at 18.40 local time (15.40pm UK time).
