KEY POINTS:
Super Aguri driver Anthony Davidson's unfortunate coming together with a small furry animal during the Canadian GP was wrongly blamed on a beaver, according to Colin Galinski.
"The animal killed in the Montreal Grand Prix was not a beaver, but a different furry mammal - the groundhog (aka Marmot)," Galinski writes from Toronto.
"As a Canadian it is bothersome that foreign press assume anything remotely small and wobbly on our soil is a beaver."
Anthony Davidson was robbed of his first-ever Formula One points when he hit the animal. A pitstop to replace the Super Aguri's front wing left the Brit in 11th place.
"It's such a shame about the beaver," Davidson said following the race, "it had it in for me for sure."
