🗣️'To tie with Ayrton is something incredible.' A milestone victory for Verstappen at the CanadianGP, and its significance was not lost on the F1 points-leader ⬇️
Verstappen has now reached that level with his win in Montreal, his sixth of the season, a level simultaneously achieved while assisting Red Bull to reach the milestone of 100 F1 victories.
"I hate to compare different generations but, from my side, the only thing I can say is that when I was a little kid driving in go-karts, I was dreaming about being a Formula 1 driver, and I would've never imagined winning 41 grands prix," Verstappen said. He added that it remained difficult to keep the tyres in the right window, particularly with the hard rubber, and probably suited the cars that were a bit harder on their tyres given the lower degradation characteristics of the Montreal race.
"I think it was quite tough today to keep the tyres in the right window. They were always running quite cold, so we had to push actually quite hard on the tyre.
