Montreal, Canada

Non-animated version


The Canadian Grand Prix is held on an island in the St Lawrence Seaway, and the track loops around the futuristic buildings erected for Expo '67

Canada's Grand Prix track is one of the calendar's best stops, not so much for the challenge of the track as for the all-round appeal of the venue.

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve - named for the late, great Ferrari star - is no huge test for the drivers.

But its combination of straights and slow corners often provides fast, furious, action-packed racing.

And Montreal, an atmospheric blend of North American and European culture, is a charming and exciting place.
