Stroll: No further plans to race outside of F1 in 2018

Williams Lance Stroll enjoyed his outing at Daytona last weekend, but the young Canadian has no further plans to venture outside of F1 this year.

The 19-year-old teamed up with Robin Frijns, Daniel Juncadella and Felix Rosenqvist in the #37 Jackie Chan DC Racing JOTA Oreca LMP2 car for the Rolex 24.

The crew ran comfortably in the top-ten early on but mechanical troubles and several punctures ultimately put their mount out of contention.

Stroll won't be taking a leaf out of Fernando Alonso's book in 2018, keeping his focus exclusively on Formula 1.

"To be honest, at the moment I’m not ready to do Le Mans or do anything other than Formula 1," Stroll told RACER.

"My focus is Formula 1 – I do want to become a world champion one day and I want to have a good year this year.

"Last year there were a lot of things that we could have improved on and that’s what I want to do. I want to improve my weaknesses."

• Stroll admits to 'dramatic change' since racing in F1

While he views his maiden season of Grand Prix racing as positive overall, Stroll knows he's still on a learning curve and aware of the areas which need improvement.

He isn't against returning to Daytona next year however.

"I believe we did have a good year last year in terms of how many points we scored and where we were in the championship – we were fighting for 10th until the last race with [Nico] Hulkenberg and Felipe [Massa] – and I’ve had some great results.

"But there are still areas like qualifying and understanding the tires and all that; all those factors in Formula 1 I have to work on and that’s where my main focus is.

"This was a one and only thing at Daytona; after this it will be Formula 1 all the way until Abu Dhabi. And then, next Daytona!"
