Problem for Red Bull, Sergio Pérez retires from Canadian GP after just 9 laps, Schumacher also not continuing

Formula 1 is currently running its ninth race of the season, namely the Canadian Grand Prix at the Montreal circuit. After just nine laps, Sergio Pérez has retired early, leaving Red Bull with only Max Verstappen to play with.

Mexican Pérez will not continue in the Canadian Grand Prix due to apparent gearbox damage.

Only reigning world champion Max Verstappen will continue in Red Bull colours at the Montreal circuit.

Of course, yellow flags were immediately waved at the circuit and race directors activated a virtual safety car, which several drivers took advantage of to pit stop.

Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and also Júki Cunoda and Nicholas Latifi changed to the hardest tyres marked in white.

The second retirement from the race Mick Schumacher in the Haas. However, the German driver had a great start to the Canadian Grand Prix, but was betrayed by a mechanical failure on lap 20.

The yellow flags flew again in Montreal and the fans witnessed a virtual safety car for the second time. Verstappen, Sainz, Hamilton, Alonso, Russell, Ocon, Leclerc, Bottas, Stroll and Zhou – this is the current standings after 26 laps.
