Tragic news: Max Verstappen responds to George Russell’s remark with true colors after…
Max Verstappen consoled Mercedes driver George Russell in private during Sunday’s Canadian Grand Prix.
He then gave Russell a stern word of support. Russell had the lead going into the race, but some expensive errors caused him to drop to third place, behind Verstappen and Lando Norris.
Over the weekend, one of the most remarkable qualifying sessions and races in recent memory took place at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
Russell secured Mercedes’ first pole position since Hungary last year and led the Canadian Grand Prix for 20 laps. Verstappen, who also began on the front row and had set the same lap time in qualifying for the second time ever in Formula One history, was putting a lot of pressure on him, but he was managing to hold him off.
