Mercedes Formula One boss Toto Wolff has dismissed Red Bull's failed protest of George Russell's Canadian Grand Prix win as petty and embarrassing.

Toto Wolff has slammed Red Bull ’s late protest against George Russell at the Canadian Grand Prix as “petty” and “embarrassing.” Russell, who started on pole, fended off the challenge of Red Bull’s Max Verstappen behind him to win the Montreal race, claiming his fourth F1 win and Mercedes’s first victory of the season.

The Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix ended under Safety Car conditions, with George Russell leading Max Verstappen and the rest of the field to the checkered flag. But while the podium celebration has come and gone and the media pen has gone quiet, Red Bull is not done contesting this race.
