    Still cannot figure out why Stroll thought it was a good idea to drive through the gravel getting beached after he crashed, he could have made a 180 and stay on the tarmac.

      F1 cars have reverse, which would’ve gotten him on safe ground. I think he tried a 180 but there wasn’t enough tarmac to work with with the barriers being so close, so he beaches himself.
