The Mercedes driver drove a flawless race to win the Canadian Grand Prix, while Lando Norris crashed out late while battling teammate Oscar Piastri.

Mercedes driver George Russell defeated Max Verstappen at Formula 1's Canadian Grand Prix to claim his first win of the 2025 season, while Lando Norris retired after contact with McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri.

Oscar Piastri caused a red flag during FP3 at the Canadian Grand Prix, after the F1 championship leader collided with the Wall of Champions. The McLaren star bounced off the kerb on his way into the final chicane, which saw him clip the wall.

Max Verstappen has been in the headlines in the build-up to the race, with the Red Bull star sitting just one penalty point away from a one-race suspension following his controversial collision with George Russell last time out in Spain. He heads into this weekend's race 49 points behind Piastri and knows he has no margin for error.
