    Except for Stroll, who was quite dismal. No comparison to the last Canadian to make his debut with Williams in the Australian GP
    Oct. 31, 1999 - one of the blackest days in motorsports.

    Lance didn't have that bad a race , considering he was in 13th when his brake disc failed .
    I saw at least one overtake from him during the broadcast , and those were pretty rare to see .

    I'm not saying he did great , but "dismal" is a bit harsh .

    hee hee.
    Yeah but Stroll did the best he could I guess. He retired in the end while Massa was very workmanlike putting his Williams in the points.
