Kimi Antonelli extends his championship lead significantly by winning the fourth consecutive race, while George Russell's retirement in Canada further widens the gap between them.
Kimi Antonelli secured a dominant victory at the Canadian Grand Prix, marking his fourth straight win. The Italian driver’s impressive performance not only bolstered his position but also widened the gap with his main rival, George Russell.

The race in Canada was a testament to Antonelli's skill and consistency. Despite facing tough competition, he managed to maintain control throughout the event. His fourth consecutive win underscores his strong form and determination to secure the title.
On the other hand, George Russell’s retirement during the race dealt a significant blow to his championship hopes.
