The first ever Grand Prix was held at year 1978. The circuit is situated on the narrow island in the St Lawrence River.
With this year new regulations, the race will be more interesting to watch. Especially with the KERS, Pirelli tyres and two Drag Reduction System (DRS) zone which will be good to see how teams cope with the breaking temperatures and minimum three pit stops.
However, the supersoft and soft tyres will be used in the Montreal. Pirelli motorsport boss Paul Hembery said “the reason we are going super soft and soft is that you want to have grip from the tyre, if you go with something too hard then you end wheel-spinning, tyres grain and they get consumed even quicker.”
So far this year Redbull’s Sebastian vettel has won 5 races out of 6 races. I reckon this time he can win the race too but then that Lewis being a close competitor has got enormous chances to win at the Canadian Grand Prix.
McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton has won twice, been on pole three times. His first Grand prix win was in year 2007 and then in year 2010. It’s one of the favourite tracks for Lewis. “Montreal is a very special place for me," says Lewis.
Apart from Redbull’s and McLaren’s there are chances that Renault, Force India can gain some points. Moreover, Ferrari’s is not to behind of Redbull’s and McLaren. Fernando Alonso has shown his great driving talent staying right behind Vettel at the Monaco Grand Prix. He had won in year 2006 when he drove for Renault.
Well just two days to go for the Friday’s first free practice. We will see one more amazing race of this season. So enjoy the weekend.
