F1 driver Lewis Hamilton is "devastated" about the casualty in his latest race, because he accidentally ran over a groundhog. During an early lap of the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal on Sunday, the legendary British driver was told he hit an animal,

But the seven-time world champion, a vegan and well-known animal lover, was more concerned with the "horrible" death of the groundhog.

McLaren typically has the fastest car on track, but in Montreal, the team struggled to get the car into an ideal operating window.

The race finished under the safety car with Piastri in fourth place behind Russell, Red Bull's Max Verstappen and Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli.

Norris' mistake has left him 22 points behind the Australian in their fight for the championship.

While Russell thought the results in FP2 may have “flattered” the team, he also believes that the cooler temperatures and smoother surface in Montreal will play to the team’s strengths.

George Russell says he feels like he's "driving better than ever" after winning his first race of the season at the Canadian Grand Prix.
