Red Bull Boss Accuses George Russell of Manipulative Tactics in Red Bull Canada Protest

In a shocking turn of events at the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has made explosive claims regarding George Russell’s victory and the subsequent protest lodged by Red Bull against the race results. Horner alleged that Russell’s actions were a deliberate attempt to push Max Verstappen over the edge and incur a penalty point, which would have had severe consequences for the Red Bull driver.

Despite Russell’s dominant performance at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, a late Safety Car situation caused chaos on the track, leading to a controversial finish to the race. Russell’s questionable maneuver of slowing down on the back straight, prompting Verstappen to overtake him, raised suspicions within the Red Bull camp. Horner pointed out Russell’s behavior, stating that it was evident he was keeping a close eye on Verstappen during the race.

The tense rivalry between Russell and Verstappen has been escalating since their clash at the Spanish Grand Prix, where Verstappen narrowly avoided a race ban due to penalty points. Horner did not mince his words when accusing Russell of playing mind games with Verstappen, insinuating that the young driver was intentionally trying to provoke a reaction.

Despite Red Bull’s formal protest to the FIA, which was eventually dismissed, Russell retained his well-deserved victory. Horner commended Verstappen for his professionalism and clean racecraft throughout the weekend, despite the mounting pressure and distractions surrounding the potential penalty point.

As the Formula 1 season unfolds, the drama and tension between drivers and teams continue to intensify, with each race becoming a battleground for supremacy. The Canadian Grand Prix will go down in history not only for the thrilling on-track action but also for the off-track controversies that have left fans and pundits alike buzzing with speculation.
