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.

The FIA hit the Red Bull star and four-time world champion with a 10-second penalty in the race, followed by three penalty points on his super license. That means Verstappen enters the Canadian Grand Prix with 11 points total on his super license in total. F1's rules dictate 12 penalty points in a 12-month period trigger a one-race suspension.

Verstappen has hit out at repeated questions about his F1 race ban threat after 2025 Canadian Grand Prix qualifying.

The feud between George Russell and four-time reigning Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen could continue at the Canadian Grand Prix after the two locked up the front row in qualifying.

Christian Horner made clear statements about Max Verstappen's future at Red Bull Racing after the first free practice session in Canada. The reigning Formula 1 world champion remains with the Austrian team.
