In the chaos of the Canadian Grand Prix, conditioned by variable weather and a wet track that gradually dried out, there was also room for a Long distance ‘battle’ between Red Bull and McLarenin a long thread that connects Miami – where the race was held a month ago and Lando Norris won – and Montreal.
L’The entry of the Safety Car after an accident by Logan Sargeant penalized Norris himself, leader of the GP at that moment ahead of Verstappen, Russell and Piastri. English he had benefited from a similar episode in the Miami race which had favored him in that case, making it easier for him to take the lead from Verstappen.
Lambiase enjoys his revenge
The situation here has been completely reversed – with the world champion who found the lead of the race offered on a silver platter – made Verstappen’s track engineer jokingly remove a few pebbles from his shoesGianpiero Lambiase.
Commenting with his driver on the overtaking which took place under the Safety Car regime, the Italian-English engineer murmured with satisfaction: “What goes around, comes around“. Literally, “what you do comes back to you”. And then: “That’s Miami back“, “this is ‘revenge’ for Miami“. This time, in fact, the safety car may have launched the orange champion towards success, after depriving him of a possible success in the first American race of the season.
