That is very possibly the case as Perez reduced the 6 second gap from Lance by the time he was called into the pits. It is possible that he hit debris from the Grosjean-Latifi crash. Or damaged it on the curbs. You would think the Racing Point would have sensors to monitor downforce loads on the wings. Hence, they should have seen something in their telemetry before he was called into the pits.
Whichever way you look at it, it was still driver error of some sort.Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

I thought you wrote that your Lance bashing was done .
You said it was possible he hit debris , but then said that whichever way you look at it , he screwed up .
That sounds like a bit of a bash , doesn't it ?
The useless Lance took pole and was driving away from them all , and , at 17 laps in , went suddenly backwards to ninth because he's so useless .
Now , that's a bash .

Now you are being dramatic. You and I know Lance Stroll is not useless. Even so, the fact remains that he damaged the front wing. As we all know the front wing would not damage itself. How the damage occured may well have been outside his control, we may never know that for sure. But as these things go, he did not convert a very clear advantage into what would have been a highly impressive win. Which would have done wonders for his status among other drivers and fans alike.
It is not bashing to state the fact. I am just disappointed that he did not do it. I am still very much in his corner as you would find from all my previous posts.Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

My point there would be that neither the team nor Lance knew until after the race that the wing had been damaged , implying that neither saw a reason to suspect it was .
That says he likely didn't bust it on the curbs , but rather hit some debris .
It explains his bewilderment at why he could no longer drive the thing .
Don't be disappointed , be impressed .

Looks like a front wing setup mess up by Max's RB pit crew may have also contributed to his poor performance in Turkey... 7 degree angle difference between both sides.. Doh!
