Lance Stroll has been grilled by fans on social media after getting into a tangle with Haas’ Nico Hulkenberg on lap one of the Bahrain Grand Prix.

The Canadian driver was sent into a half-spin when he was collected by Hulkenberg at turn one, just seconds into the race.

The ‘Hulk’ sustained damage that forced him to stop at the end of the lap for a new front wing, while Stroll was left at the back of the pack, with a lot of work to do.
