Max Verstappen was so in control of the Canadian Grand Prix he managed to win the race despite having a dead bird stuck in a brake duct of his Red Bull.

It seems absolutely nothing can stop verstappen this year. Just crazy

So that's why he was slowing down by 0.01s?

Other teams about to hire a magician to deposit pigeons in the Red Bull.

To think we could've been this close to an Alonso win

Wait, is this true? That would be insane, them managing brake temps with a bird in there, it would explain the Merc and Aston staying relatively close I guess

Well, that’s depressing. Just for a moment, I dared to think the pack might actually be closing up.

Catching game yourself is a weird way to save on catering costs.

It's all about the budget cap.

Meanwhile that dead bird is undergoing harley quinn-esque mutation
