Russell Wins Dramatic Canadian Grand Prix

George Russell won the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix, marking his first victory of the season after a dramatic race that featured multiple leaders and a late safety car. Red Bull's protest over Russell's conduct behind the safety car was dismissed by stewards after more than five hours of review, confirming his win. Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli claimed his first Formula 1 podium in third, becoming the first Italian to reach the podium since 2009. The race saw a collision between McLaren drivers Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris in the closing laps, resulting in Norris' retirement and paving the way for Antonelli's podium finish. The rivalry between Russell and Max Verstappen, who finished second, remained a central storyline. Mercedes aims to maintain their strong performance in the upcoming Austrian Grand Prix.
