However, the Spaniard dropped down to P9 after finishing P7 and slammed with a 5 second penalty. Alonso and his teammate Esteban Ocon provided a good watch for us fans to watch.

Alpha Tauri
Alpha Tauri was disappointed by their performance at the Canadian Grand Prix 2022. Frenchman Pierre Gasly is not nearing his last season performance. Clearly, he is falling behind in Alpha Tauri. He and Leclerc being jammed up in traffic was highest news buzz we heard from the guy. Yuki Tsunoda looked in contention for a championship place as he fought along for the last two places. He fended off Stroll, Zhou and Riccardo. However his luck was pretty bad. As he was about to pit, he careened straight into the wall bringing in a safety car.
Alpha Tauri: 27 pts (7th)

Haas Racing
Mick Schumacher and Kevin Magnussen both made into the top ten in the starting grids. The drivers started in P5 and P6 respectively. The german and the dane was poised to win sioem points on teh Montreal tracks.
However Mick had to retire early in the game at Turn 8 due to technical issues. The first points of the star kid is elongating further and further. The British veteran Hamilton collided into Kevin’s car which caused mild wing damage. The move forced a black-and-orange flag and a pit stop for Magnussen. He failed to recover from that.
Haas Racing: 15pts (9th)
Kevin Magnussen: 15pts (12th) , Mick Schumacher: 0pt (19th)
Aston Martin
Aston Martin had an eventful Sunday. When Stroll finished at P10 gaining one point for the team, Vettel came behind. The German finished at P12. When former champions Hamilton and Alonso made into the top ten, Sebastian Vettel couldn’t. Not going to lie, It hurts to seem his like that. Lance Stroll showed exemplary skills to finish P10 from his meagre qualifying position of P17.

Williams Racing
Williams Racing is trying to fill in the void of George Russell with Alex Albon has been not a very good replacement. He finished P13 in Sunday’s race and he is not getting into the top ten as many predicted.
Nicholas Latifi who raced for the first time in his home turf failed to provide quality performance. However his consistent placing at P16 proved to be successful once again. The Canadian might be required to perform way better in the upcoming races.
Williams Racing: 3pt (10th)
Alex Albon: 3 pt (17th), Nicholas Latifi: 0 pt (21st)
Scuderia Ferrari
Ferrari who went through hell last race seems to have got out of it. As we were discussing Leclerc’s future and his decline, he proved us wrong. The Monacan who needed an urgent replacement of his engine after the failure in Baku. This gave him a ten place penalty which was upgraded with a back of the grid start. The twenty four year old so started at P19. He drove from there into the championship points. On his way he overtook several tight fights and finished at P5.
The Spaniard Carlos Sainz also recovered from the Baku disaster. He started at P3 in the grid and surpassed Alonso in the second lap and set off on Max Verstappen. He however could not overpass him at the end of the race. The last ten laps of the race was heated between him and the Dutch. Sainz seemed very poised to win his first Grand Prix.
Scuderia Ferrari: 228 pts (2nd)
Charles Le Clerc: 126 pts (3rd), Carlos Sainz: 102 pts (5th)
McLaren Mercedes
The British constructor McLaren had a seriously grave day on Sunday. The pitstops were nothing but a huge confusion. The Australian Daniel Ricciardo was forced into a slow pit styop. They tried to double stack the tyres but ended up in vain. On the other hand Lando Norris boxed but his tyres weren’t ready and that caused a huge pullback to the young Brit.
The papaya team therefore could not score a single point when it mattered. Riccardo finished at P11 despite his valid efforts and attempts to finish further higher in the rankings. Norris managed to finish a p15 only
McLaren Mercedes: 65 pts (4th)
Lando Norris: 50 pts (7th), Daniel Ricciardo: 15pts (13th)
Red Bull Racing
Red Bull who is on track to win the Constructors Title this year had an okayish day. Max Verstappen won his twenty sixth win of his career. He made his 150th start a wonderful one. Max raced a tactful race from pole position, hoisting his 46 points clear in the championship. His pace outdid Sainz as they gave pleasure to the fans’ eyes.
However Sergio Perez had to retire early due to the technical problems. Perez who was looking to tighten his grip on the second place and aim for the championship. His hopes were sure let down.
