Christian Horner accused George Russell of attempting to “goad” Max Verstappen into earning himself a race ban as tempers flared following a dramatic Canadian Grand Prix.

Lando Norris was handed a further punishment by the stewards after his crash at the Canadian Grand Prix. Norris, 25, started from P7 following a disappointing qualifying session on Saturday afternoon. Towards the closing stages of the race, the Brit was on the charge as he closed in on his teammate, Oscar Piastri, who was running in P4.

In the closing laps of the Canadian Grand Prix, McLaren teammates Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris were battling for fourth place, with hopes of a fight further up the grid on the table for the McLaren driver who emerged victorious.

When seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton suffered damage to his car during the Canadian Grand Prix on Sunday, the cause wasn’t initially clear.

Lando Norris admitted responsibility in what happened to Oscar Piastri at the Canadian Grand Prix on Sunday. The two McLaren drivers have had a spectacular year and sit at the top two places in the podium, but the Canadian Grand Prix did not end well for either of them.

Verstappen was penalized for causing a collision with Russell in that incident, and is just one penalty point shy of a one-race suspension. The Red Bull driver needs to navigate both the Canadian Grand Prix and the Austrian Grand Prix later this month without incident to avoid a suspension.
