Max Verstappen in this regard
After winning the Canadian Grand Prix, the winner said that it was indeed very exciting in the end. He said that he was giving it everything he had and of course, his competitor Carlos was also doing the same thing. He could see that Carlos was pushing and charging but the time when you are on DRS it is a lot easier to charge. The last few laps of this race were indeed a lot of fun.
The 24-year-old Dutchman drove his 150th Grand Prix in his career till now and has now emerged victoriously on six of nine races in the current season. On the other hand, Sainz with his Ferrari scored an extra point for performing the fastest lap of the race.
