Canadian rookie Lance Stroll spins out of second consecutive day of testing

BARCELONA, Spain -- Eighteen-year-old rookie Lance Stroll suffered another setback on his first week of testing for Williams after crashing out for a second day in a row.

Stroll had a shortened first day at the wheel on Tuesday when an innocuous-looking spin forced Williams to make repairs, which ended his day prematurely. He was looking to make up time on Wednesday and, despite a spin just before the hour-long lunch break, looked to be ticking nicely towards a century of laps.

However, while on his 99th late in the afternoon, Stroll spun out and hit the wall coming down the hill at Turn 5.
