The Canadian Grand Prix was one for the books again. A thrilling battle up front, Max Verstappen in second place, and a bizarre ending by Lando Norris. How did the fans react?
George Russell convincingly won the race in Montreal, but there was much more at play. Max Verstappen drove his race calmly, possibly to avoid a penalty point and suspension, but that was not all.
In the final stages, we saw a huge blunder by McLaren, caused by Lando Norris. The papaya duo was on its way to scoring decent points for the championship, but Norris ended up in the wall.
Following the incident, the race ended behind the safety car. How did the fans react to yet another thrilling Canadian GP?
