With both Ferrari drivers struggling for pace at the 2024 F1 Canadian Grand Prix, Max Verstappen took the opportunity in stride and extended both his and Red Bulls lead in the championship despite Sergio Perez’s woeful performance. Lando Norris was also in the picture for the win, but couldn’t edge out Max.

Weather played a significant factor in this Grand Prix where Max Verstappen started second on the grid albeit tied for pole with George Russell and secured another win for himself. Lando Norris got unlucky with the safety car deployment which slowed him down giving Max the edge this weekend.
