The Red Bull driver is joined on the front row by Fernando Alonso in the heavily-upgraded Aston Martin, whilst right behind him are the two Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, who have been promising better race pace than qualifying pace.Ī penalised Nico Hulkenberg starts on the third row of the grid for Haas, whilst front-runners Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez will be battling from lowly grid slots to recover from a poor qualifying. However, Piastri continued his incredible streak of overtakes to get past Gasly almost immediately after the safety car period finished, but was overtaken himself by a charging Verstappen on lap 33 – one lap after his teammate Sergio Perez took the lead from Leclerc.īehind them, the two Alpine drivers were engaging in a thrilling battle for fifth, with Ocon and Gasly going toe-to-toe – but the former ending up ahead after they traded multiple overtaking moves.The downpours in qualifying could not prevent championship leader Max Verstappen from taking Formula 1 Pole Position for the Canadian Grand Prix. Leclerc was one who didn’t as he had pitted just six laps earlier, and the Ferrari took the lead from Perez and Gasly, while Piastri suddenly found himself in fourth ahead of Verstappen.īut Piastri did not benefit from the timing of the safety car, given his rivals suddenly had fresh tyres that could take them to the end of the race, while the Australian still needed to pit a third time. The incident drew another safety car due to a huge amount of debris on track – with almost every driver taking the opportunity for a cheap pit stop. But he eventually finished a remarkable seventh after a fantastic drive. He surged into the top 10 before a puncture when colliding with Piastri saw him drop to 19th after pitting. He started 10th but dropped to 15th after being struck on the first corner. Lewis Hamilton was another star to have a wild night in Vegas. The Aussie rose as high as fourth before pitting and dropping to 12th, but managed to deliver the fastest laps of the race – of any driver – and hunted down Alex Albon and Pierre Gasly to finish 10th as well as claim a bonus point for securing the fastest lap of the race.īut it was hardly as exciting a race for the second Australian Daniel Ricciardo, who struggled for pace all race (indeed, all weekend) and finished well outside the points. While he still was on the hunt for points, his race was burned by a separate crash that drew a safety car at an inopportune time – gifting rivals a ‘free’ pit stop, while Piastri still needed to pit later in the race. Meanwhile, Australia’s Oscar Piastri started in 18th but rose to seventh after the multiple incidents on the first lap, before a collision with Lewis Hamilton caused damage to the McLaren star. Max Verstappen (C) wore a special Elvis race suit – and delivered a performance worthy of the King.
