Red Bull's Max Verstappen held off Ferrari's Carlos Sainz to win the Canadian Grand Prix on Sunday and celebrate his 150th Formula One race by surging 46 points clear in the world championship.
The 24-year-old Dutch driver took his 26th career win just 0.9 of a second ahead of frustrated Spaniard Sainz,who was able to close the gap thanks to a safety car deployment but whose long wait for a first win continues.
"It was really exciting at the end. I was giving it everything I had and, of course, Carlos was doing the same," said Verstappen after his sixth win of the season and Red Bull's sixth in succession. Sainz said he had tried everything he could to win at a circuit named after Canada's late Ferrari great Gilles Villeneuve.
