Max Verstappen arrived at the Canadian Grand Prix a single point away from a one-race suspension following his collision with George Russell at the Spanish Grand Prix.

Max Verstappen approaches the Canadian Grand Prix under the shadow of a potential one-race suspension due to accumulated penalty points. Despite the looming threat, Verstappen remains steadfast in maintaining his aggressive driving style.

Martin Brundle has told Max Verstappen’s rivals to “goad” him into receiving an F1 race ban. Verstappen was given a 10-second penalty and three penalty points for his controversial collision with George Russell last time out in Spain which has moved him onto 11 penalty points from the last 12 months.
