Max Verstappen 's biggest challenger may have been a bird in the Canadian Grand Prix. In the opening stages, a bird got into the RB19's radiator and stayed there throughout the race, Christian Horner revealed afterwards. Meanwhile, a picture has also surfaced online of how the bird was removed from the radiator by Red Bull engineers after the race. Warning, the article contains a graphic image.

The bird that flew into the RB19 did Verstappen's car no favours, but it could not stop the Dutchman from his fourth win in a row in the premier class of motorsport. But looking at that photo, things might have turned out differently.
