Aston Martin driver Lance Stroll voiced his displeasure with the current car in an explicit-loaded rant.
Stroll started the British Grand Prix in P17, but the rain and safety cars allowed the 26-year-old to work his way up the grid and score points.
He ran as high as third and looked on for a potential podium finish.
Sauber’s Nico Hulkenberg ended up securing the last step on the podium.
Stroll finished seventh, netting a nice haul of points for the driver, though his radio message after the race was extremely blunt:
“Yeah crazy is an understatement, I mean it’s the worst piece of sh*t I’ve ever driven to be honest,” he told his engineer.
The statement from Stroll isn’t rare – he is known for losing his temper.
According to ESPN, the Canadian driver damaged multiple items in the team’s garage after being eliminated in qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix.
He ended up not racing in Spain due to a hand injury, which potentially resulted from his frustration.
Ahead of the Austrian Grand Prix, Stroll was notably upset about how his season went.
“So I think there’s, there’s definitely, you know, just been like some cr*p going on and just not kind of putting it together,” he said.
In the same press conference, the long-time F1 driver hit back at critics who believe that he doesn’t even want to race in the sport.
“I think Formula 1 is a business with very short-minded opinions,” he added.
“And if you have two good races, you’re the best driver in the world. And if you have two bad ones, you’re not good enough. You shouldn’t be here anymore and you’re s**t.
“So I think you know that’s the business. That’s how it’s always been. It’s how it always will be.
“I think you know when you have a crap day. You don’t enjoy having a crap day. If you have a good day, you enjoy having a good day. So I think that’s just how it is.”
This season, Stroll has scored 20 points at the halfway mark of the season. He scored those points in three out of the first 12 races.
Aside from those impressive finishes, he typically does not fight for points and is often stuck at the back of the grid.
Stroll will hope for a more comfortable time behind the wheel of the Aston Martin in the second half of the season.
