The last virtual Grand Prix was again won by George Russell. The last three races were already a prey for the Briton, who, with a fourth win in a row, makes it perfectly clear why he has earned the title.

It started right away during the virtual Grand Prix of Canada for Russell. The Brit got away well and managed to put Alexander Albon immediately behind. After an impressive pole, nobody saw Russell again, who could really laugh about it. During the race he wondered about the onboard radio where the competition was.

Chaos in Canada

Besides the fact that Russell is also by far the fastest at the moment, there was a lot to do in the background. Drivers got so many penalties that at the end of the race it was still good to see who actually finished where. Pierre Gasly was even disqualified, because he had cut the corner too often.

After the computer added the penalties to everyone, the rest of the result became clear. Albon was back on the podium and Esteban Gutierrez also finished the virtual season well with a third place. YouTuber Tiametmarduk impressed with some daring overtaking and was rewarded with a fifth place.
