Who won the F1 race today? Full results, classification from 2025 from Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal

Formula One returned to North America on Sunday, June 15, with the other contenders determined to make a dent in McLaren's lead.

Oscar Piastri's victory at the Spanish Grand Prix ahead of teammate Lando Norris two weeks ago continued the team's dominance of the 2025 calendar to date. That result put Piastri on 161 points at the top of the Drivers' Championship, three ahead of Norris.

At the Canadian Grand Prix, the fight back came in the form of a stunning pole for Mercedes' George Russell, who pipped defending champion Max Verstappen to P1 by 0.160 seconds.

Russell and Verstappen clashed in an incident at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, which resulted in the Dutchman being handed a 10-second penalty and being dumped down to a 10th-place finish.

Piastri started third at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, with Norris having plenty of work to do from seventh on the grid.
