Ricciardo wins Canadian Grand Prix

MONTREAL: Daniel Ricciardo beamed from ear to ear on Sunday when he ended Mercedes early-season domination by claiming his maiden Formula One victory for Red Bull in a dramatic crash-hit Canadian Grand Prix.

The 24-year-old Australian took full advantage of power and electrical problems that hit both championship leader Nico Rosberg and his Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton in the closing stages to claim a stirring triumph. "I am still a bit in shock," said Ricciardo. "Thanks everyone. This is ridiculous! There are lots of Australian flags... which is nice." (AFP)
