Canadian Grand Prix review (ad-free)
🕑 Added 2025-06-16 05:56:48 +0000 UTCFrom Montreal, Edd Straw is joined by Jon Noble and Mark Hughes to review a dramatic and eventful Canadian Grand Prix.
A somewhat pedestrian race was enlivened just before the flag when Lando Norris crashed into the back of his McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri - but how much has the incident hurt his title bid? That's one of the key questions answered.
Edd, Jon and Mark also discuss Mercedes' stunning turn of form, explaining why George Russell - only fourth in Spain - was able to ease to victory here, ably backed up by rookie team-mate Kimi Antonelli, who took a maiden F1 podium in third behind Max Verstappen's Red Bull. There's also discussion of why Red Bull's protest against race winner Russell for “unsportsmanlike intent” was thrown out by the stewards.
The episode is rounded out with chat about Ferrari's lacklustre showing against the backdrop of mounting pressure on team boss Fred Vasseur, and the usual Race Members' Club questions section.

George was looking in his mirror, slammed on the brakes, and within half a second was on the radio. I don't see how you expect us to believe he wasn't penalty baiting, or that that is acceptable behavior behind a safety car.
