MAX VERSTAPPEN mastered the ever-changing conditions to win a chaotic Canadian Grand Prix that was at times more akin to a chess match than a Formula One race.
Lewis Hamilton also shone but was denied a long-overdue first podium finish of the season by team-mate George Russell.
Wet weather in Montreal meant it was all about who would win the strategy battle and who could keep their car out of the wall.
Red Bull came out on top to guide defending champion Verstappen home in first place as Brits Russell and Lando Norris were left to squabble behind.
All three led at various stages as they tried to get to grips with a track that dried fast when the sun was out, but kept being doused with rain.
That was the story of the first two-thirds of the race.
