The FIA are holding talks with Lance Stroll after he sparked controversy with his actions in the aftermath of qualifying at the Qatar Grand Prix. The Aston Martin driver could face punishment for his behaviour and will almost certainly be reprimanded.<\/p>\n
A statement from an FIA spokesperson read: “The FIA Compliance Officer is in discussion with Lance Stroll in relation to several incidents that may have contravened FIA rules, policies and procedures during the Qatar Grand Prix.”<\/p>\n
According to a report from Sky Sports News, this statement and the subsequent talks relate to the Canadian driver\u2019s behaviour after the Qatar Grand Prix qualifying session.<\/p>\n
Stroll was eliminated in Q1 for the fourth consecutive Grand Prix in Qatar, prompting a furious reaction from the 24-year-old upon returning to the garage. Before climbing out of his AMR23 he threw his steering wheel from the cockpit, before shoving personal trainer Henry Howe.<\/p>\n

Completing his mandatory post-session media duties, he gave snappy and short answers to three questions before storming out altogether.\u00a0<\/p>\n These actions have attracted plenty of criticism, not aided by the 24-year-old\u2019s underwhelming performances in 2023. Stroll sits tenth in the standings with just 47 points to his name, while team-mate Fernando Alonso occupies fourth place with 183.<\/p>\n More F1… <\/strong> We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
