Max Verstappen reveals an unseen close call during the Canadian Grand Prix.
In an unexpected twist at the Canadian Grand Prix, three-time F1 champion Max Verstappen encountered a groundhog on the track, leading to a heart-stopping moment that could have significantly altered the race's outcome. While leading the pack on lap 32, the Red Bull Racing star spotted what he initially thought was debris on the circuit, only to realize it was a groundhog.
Luckily, I mean, because if that hits your car...'I really had to slow down for it because I was a bit off the dry line.'Yeah, last year, of course, a bird flew into my car. So I didn't want to have a groundhog stuck in my car as well.'George Russell, who was trailing Verstappen in second place, confirmed he also observed the groundhog incident but noted that the animal was unharmed.
