Max Verstappen went fastest in FP1 for the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix, after a Charles Leclerc crash early in the session brought out the red flag.

The Dutchman topped the timesheets with a 1:13.193, just .039s quicker than the Williams of Alex Albon.

Carlos Sainz, in the sister Williams, went third, just five hundredths off his team-mate, with George Russell three tenths back in fourth.

Lewis Hamilton was fifth with a 1:13.620s despite a spin, with Isack Hadjar six and Lando Norris seventh, the trio separated by just three hundredths.

Liam Lawson was eighth, with Pierre Gasly ninth and Leclerc’s early time placing him 10th, with his Ferrari mechanics now requiring a repair job to get the Monegasque back out on track before FP2.

Yuki Tsunoda was unable to extract anything more from his Red Bull with 11th place, seven tenths adrift of his team-mate’s lap.

Fernando Alonso was 12th, with Andrea Kimi Antonelli 13th, title-leader Oscar Piastri 14th and home favourite Lance Stroll, back from recuperation from his wrist injury, in 15th.

Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico Hulkenberg, who each scored impressive results last time out in Spain, were back in familiar territory with 16th and 20th.

Oliver Bearman, Esteban Ocon and Franco Colapinto made up the foot of the field.

The session was barely 10 minutes old when Leclerc, who at the time was in first, skidded wide at Turn 3, and clipped the barrier on the inside of Turn 4.

It brought out the red flags, with Leclerc admitting to his team that he should have “gone straight” down the escape road rather than try to make the corner.

Cars were back out on track after a five-minute delay, and the next person to have a moment was the other Ferrari of Hamilton, spinning at the hairpin before resuming and aborting his push lap.

The remainder of the session elapsed without further major incident, with Norris going onto the grass at Turn 2, but rejoining the track without any trouble.
