Red Bull’s Max Verstappen will be looking to make history at the Canadian Grand Prix as his Red Bull team continues to dominate the F1 season.
Lewis Hamilton, along with teammate George Russell, produced Mercedes’ best performance of the season in the Spanish Grand Prix last weekend. The pair finished second and third respectively but it was not enough to stop a Red Bull win from Verstappen, who still leads the standings by some distance.
Now, Verstappen and Red Bull are targeting one of Hamilton’s records. Verstappen now has 40 Grand Prix victories, with one more taking him level with Ayrton Senna and only Alain Prost, Sebastian Vettel, Michael Schumacher and Hamilton ahead of him. Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the next Grand Prix in Canada.
