F1カナダGPのスプリントレースで、メルセデスのキミ・アントネッリがチームメイトのジョージ・ラッセルと接触した際、無線で不満を漏らしたことについて、トト・ヴォルフ代表が擁護した。このインシデントは、アントネッリがトップを狙ってアウト側から仕掛けた6周目に発生した。
ポールポジションからスタートしたラッセルは、スタート直後にアントネッリをブロックするべく強気なライン取りを見せた。6周目、アントネッリはターン1でアウト側からの追い抜きを試みたが、ホイール・トゥ・ホイールの接触によりコース外へ押し出された。その後、ターン8で再び仕掛けた際には芝生に乗り上げてしまい、ランド・ノリスに2番手を奪われる結果となった。
