I’m on it! Here’s my take:
So, George Russell clinched the Canadian Grand Prix—his fourth F1 win. Feel like no one even blinked an eye. Maybe everyone, including me, got sucked into the Lando Norris vs. Oscar Piastri drama. What? Two McLaren teammates taking each other out? Sounds too wild, but there it was. All this nonsense dragged George into some chaos with Max Verstappen. Seriously, the whole thing turned into a mess of investigations and even a Red Bull protest. Five hours of “What just happened?” kind of moments, yeah?
Now, onto the media circus. Buckle up, because it’s a ride.
🇬🇧 The Times screams about Norris—calling himself “stupid” for smashing into Piastri. Like, wow, imagine owning it so publicly. Props for that. But the paper also nods at George Russell’s win, ’cause homeboy’s British. Small win for them, I guess.
🇳🇱 De Telegraaf dives right into the aftermath. Christian Horner’s not holding back, throwing shade at Russell for supposed sneaky tricks. Called him unsportsmanlike. And yet, Russell sits tight with his victory. Makes you wonder, huh?
🇮🇹 La Gazetta dello Sport is all smiles for Kimi Antonelli. Italy hasn’t seen a podium hero like him since Trulli in ’09. Fisichella and Patrese get a nod, too—Italian legends, I suppose. Feels like the kid has made his mark.
🇪🇸 El País throws this wild metaphor with Norris’ crash. Hara-kiri. Bit extreme, maybe—comparing a wreck to Samurai rituals. But yeah, Norris did kind of skewer his own race.
Then you’ve got 🇩🇪 BILD throwing a fit about the unbelievably long wait for results. Five-ish hours of “Why are we still here?” Football parallel, referee antics—sounds oddly familiar. Total drag, for sure.
Last, we got 🇦🇺 Herald Sun on a darker note. Poor Lewis Hamilton hits a groundhog. Of all things to run over on a track… wrecked his car and mood. You almost forget it’s a race with so much else going on.
This entire scene is like one of those movies where you’re not sure if you’re supposed to laugh or cry. Either way, it’s chaotic and intense, like racing itself. Too real to look away.
