Sergio Perez knew he was in for a long afternoon in Montreal, after a poor qualifying yielded just 12th on the grid. The Mexican opted to start on the hard compound tyre in a bid to overcut the midfield in the first stint, and coming home sixth he could have been satisfied with his recovery.
He was so good earlier in the year. If I had my tinfoil hat on I’d think Red Bull set it up so their star Verstappen wins again.
It’s just like Lewis vs. Bottas every year. Some drivers are just insanely consistent.
