Lance Stroll will, for the first time this season, turn up at a track he has raced at before in Austria. Stroll competed at the Red Bull Ring in the FIA European Formula 3 championship in 2015 and 2016, picking up a podium in his first year and two wins in the next.
"Austria will be a completely new experience for me, as this is the first track of the year where I have already raced. I just love that track. It is so cool and a place I have enjoyed racing. There are not that many corners but it has a great flow and it is easy to get a good rhythm.
"It is always great going back to a track where you have been successful, and that is definitely the case here as last year in Formula 3 I had two wins and a second! The area is very beautiful and it reminds me of back home in Canada – one of those northern tracks with pine trees."
Double points finish is the target
Stroll arrives in Austria on the back of claiming his first ever podium in Formula 1 which came at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, almost two weeks ago. Chief technical officer Paddy Lowe is hoping that the strong performance in Baku can give the team even more points this weekend.
"We got a front-row lockout in 2014, so we hope the car should be quick once again so we can see how far towards the front we can get in Qualifying. After Lance’s podium and Felipe’s strong but ultimately frustrated race in Azerbaijan, we have in our sights a double points finish this weekend. We will do our very best to achieve that."

It will be interesting to see if he can put in another strong result and prove it wasn't a fluke

All things considering ... i don't think so. For sure it was a good result however so many dropped out of the race. That won't happen again so he should bring that car home around 10 but more likely to be 13th.
