Aston Martin Formula 1 boss Mike Krack says his team 'has to do better' to help Lance Stroll as brake fires massively curtailed his United States Grand Prix FP1 running.
Most drivers clocked 23-26 laps during the first hour of running at the Circuit of The Americas in Austin, but Stroll could only complete five tours and team-mate Fernando Alonso was limited to 18 laps. This will prove particularly costly because Aston Martin is trying to validate an upgraded floor and bodywork, plus the sprint race format means the team now moves straight into GP qualifying.
