#OnThisDay 10 June, at the 2001 Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal, it was a historical moment as the Schumacher brothers finished first and second, the first time siblings had done so in F1 history. It wouldn’t be the last time, either. This time, it was the younger Ralf Schumacher whoclinched the win with Williams, finishing 20.2 seconds ahead of Michael Schumacher in the Ferrari, earning his second victory of the season.

Michael had been leading until a pit stop on lap 46 when Ralf seized the opportunity to set a series of fastest laps and established a substantial lead. McLaren driver David Coulthard, chasing the championship, had a difficult day, retiring 16 laps before the finish from an engine failure on the back straight because of rising water temperature. He entered the pit lane with smoke billowing from the rear of his car. He’d also suffered severe discomfort caused by a blister on his backside. He noticed an issue from the start, finding a loose nut in the car during the parade lap, which caused the car to pull to the left and the suspension to drop, resulting in his painful injury.

Coulthard’s teammate, Mika Hakkinen, came third
