With precise strategy, solid pace, and flawless driving, the Brit â and our favorite T-pose king â crossed the finish line first at the legendary Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, ahead of Max Verstappen and Lando Norris, in a race marked by shifting weather, strategic chaos, and edge-of-your-seat action all the way to the final lap.
âïž A clean start and full control
From the very beginning, Russell showed authority. Starting from pole position, he defended his spot smartly and built a gap in the opening laps while Verstappen and Leclerc battled for second.
Mercedes nailed their tire strategy and read the track conditions perfectly, especially during a brief threat of rain on lap 36, where Russell stayed calm and made key pit decisions without losing the lead.

Unlike other races this season where Russell had the pace but costly errors, this time he executed everything to perfection. His pace was consistent, his defense sharp, and his communication with the team on point.
In the end, he crossed the line sending a clear message:
George Russell is ready to fight for something big.
