Who can end Red Bull's winning streak?

Mercedes may not find that same fortune in Canada this year. The team seemed to temper expectations for Hamilton and teammate George Russell as they hit the track; boss Toto Wolff made it clear that the strides made in Spain may have been a one-off and the upcoming races may lean in their competitors' favor.
