F1 Results Today: McLaren team-mates COLLIDE to blow championship wide open at Canadian Grand Prix
In the Canadian Grand Prix, George Russell won the race with a nearly dominant performance, leading Max Verstappen and teammate Kimi Antonelli to third place. The McLaren team faced internal drama as Lando Norris crashed into Oscar Piastri while attempting an overtake, prompting Norris’s elimination from the race. The event concluded under a safety car due to Norris’s accident, leading to an anticlimactic finish after a weekend of promising practice sessions and a thrilling qualifying round. Despite some early excitement, the race was considered underwhelming for spectators, with even a groundhog causing a brief interruption on the track as Lewis Hamilton took swift action to remove it. Ferrari, after a strong start, settled for fifth and sixth place, while Max Verstappen currently holds the title of the F1 World Champion. Additionally, a rule change for the 2025 season removed the allocation of points for the fastest lap, eliminating the tactic some drivers used to pit late in the race to secure this extra point.
