Lewis Hamilton has revealed he is changing his preparation approach ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix after another difficult weekend with Ferrari in Miami.

Hamilton said:

“So, I’m not going to go on the simulator right now on the next race. I’ll still go and hold meetings at the factory and stuff. I’m just going to back away from it for a little bit and see. When we went to China I had the best weekend without sim.”

As a Verstappen fan I've always wondered why people hate George Russell, dude is just trying his best in the car he has got, the opportunity he has got. I'm sure Toto must have seen something in him but why do F1 fans hate him so much ?

Over their careers Verstappen and Hamilton have won more than 1 in 4 races that they've started in. Lewis was once sitting at 35.76% meaning he was winning every 3rd race he started in. No other driver on the current grid has come close. However, his win rate has been declining since the 2021 season.

Piastri and Antonelli rose sharply as they got good cars and got their first wins whilst still being relatively new to F1.

Alonso's rate peaked in 2007, but has been trending down since then (apart from 2010).

Was the only F1 win that Jean Alesi managed to get in his long career. It was also his 31st Birthday. (June 11th).

Was the last race that an V12 engine won and likely a stat that will never change.

Ferrari overtook McLaren with most constructor wins.

(Also a Ferrari has won at the Canadian Grand Prix at least once every decade.\*).

Was the first double podium finish for Jordan.

Other Jordan facts, they got their first points at the 1991 Canadian Grand Prix and it was a double points finish with a 4th and a 5th with Bertrand Gachot and Andrea de Cesaris.

They would only get their only other double podium at the 1988 Belgium Grand Prix which holds the record for most crashes at the start of a race, where Damon Hill and Ralf Schumacher got a 1-2 and who was on the podium joining them? That's right Jean Alesi. This would also be his last podium).

Michael Schumacher got pole and it was Renault's 100th pole position.

It was also heavily rumoured that Michael Schumacher signed a contract to join Ferrari after this race.
