Max Verstappen, the 25-year-old Dutch-Belgian racing sensation, etched his name into the annals of the Canadian Grand Prix once again by securing his third consecutive victory at the iconic event. The 9th round of the 2024 Formula 1 World Championship, held at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve in Montreal, witnessed Verstappen's masterclass performance as he claimed his 60th Formula 1 win and his sixth triumph in nine races this season.

Starting from the second position alongside pole-sitter George Russell, Verstappen seamlessly navigated the rain-soaked track before capitalizing on the emerging sunshine to establish an early lead. From there, he never looked back, dominating the 70-lap race on the 4.36-kilometer road course and crossing the finish line a staggering 3.879 seconds ahead of McLaren's Lando Norris.

Podium Finishers and Team Performances

Lando Norris of McLaren secured an impressive second-place finish, showcasing the team's competitiveness on the global stage. Meanwhile, Mercedes celebrated their first podium finish of the 2024 season, with George Russell claiming third place and the seven-time Montreal winner, Lewis Hamilton, finishing fourth.
