| 0:00.0 | The Athletic |
| 0:02.7 | The race is on, and Max Verstappen held off a charging Carlos Sites to win the Canadian Grand Prix, |
| 0:16.0 | but in a race that was shaped by safety cars, both virtual and real, was this always destined to be a Red Bull win? |
| 0:22.3 | And could the car ride row yet impact the title fight? I'm Ed Sture, and joining us to answer |
| 0:27.1 | those questions, and many more are Scott Mitchell and Mark Hughes. Well, Mark, how was it to be |
| 0:33.6 | back in Canada after two years away? I... Yeah, it was great. I thought you'd be able to tell me I was looking for you. I didn't see you. What happened? Yeah, I'm very, very easy to miss. Unfortunately, COVID finally caught up with me, so I was unable to board my flight, so I've been stuck at base. But a shame, because Montreal's always a great race, isn't it? |

| 1:51.3 | Yeah, maybe it is all to do with just the sheer mass of supporters that we have coming to |
| 1:59.5 | events now. I think it's just, what was this? |
| 2:03.0 | I don't know how many events now we've had where this year, where the weekend attendance is |
