Verstappen Snaps at 'Childish' Criticism of His Driving

George Russell secured pole position ahead of Max Verstappen for the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
Verstappen received three penalty points for causing a collision with Russell at the Spanish Grand Prix and is now one point away from a race ban at 12 points.
Verstappen expressed frustration with media questions on his penalty points and the possible ban, calling the criticism childish and saying, "I don't need to hear it again."
Russell celebrated his pole lap as "one of the most exhilarating laps" and said, "We have to be smart and use it to our advantage" while pursuing third place in the Drivers' Championship.
With Verstappen close to a ban, he must avoid incidents to prevent suspension, while Russell aims for his first win after a solid season start with four podiums.
