Russell back on top step as 'stupid' Norris crashes out

Lando Norris coughed up vital points as he rear-ended Oscar Piastri, while George Russell celebrated first win of season
Lando Norris crashed out of the Canadian Grand Prix following a sensational 200mph collision with McLaren teammate and championship rival Oscar Piastri.
As George Russell delivered a faultless drive to win from pole position ahead of Red Bull rival Max Verstappen, Norris banged into the back of Piastri as they duelled for fourth place with three laps to go.
Norris attempted to pass Piastri across the start-finish line, but he misjudged the move and hit his teammate's car.
Norris was forced to park his damaged McLaren and immediately accepted blame for the incident.
"It is all my bad," he said on the radio. "All my fault. Unlucky. Stupid from me."
The race ended behind the safety car with Kimi Antonelli taking third place - his first podium in Formula One to complete a strong afternoon for Mercedes. Piastri was able to continue and crossed the line in fourth to extend his F1 championship lead over Norris from 10 points to 22.
