Lance Stroll and Alex Albon are both seen struggling to get out of their cars from the onboard cameras at the end of a gruelling Qatar GP, both drivers cleared after medical checks
Esteban Ocon revealed he threw up during the Qatar Grand Prix, while Lando Norris called the race conditions 'too dangerous'. The humidity, temperatures which were in excess of 40 degrees and the high-speed corners made the race incredibly tough for the drivers.Another factor was the 18-lap limit on tyres which led to a minimum of three pit stops, so the drivers pushed harder during the Grand Prix, which was won by Max Verstappen on Sunday.
'I know that this race next year is later on in the season and it will be a lot cooler, a few months later, but it's something needs to be thought of. I'm sure we will speak about it because it kind of shouldn't have happened in the first place.' Piastri added: 'Extremely hot. Even from from the beginning, I put my helmet on before the start of the race and I was sweating. It definitely didn't get any better once I was driving! Very hot.
