The Canadian Grand Prix (known in French as the Grand Prix du Canada), abbreviated as gpc, is an annual auto race held in Canada starting in 1961. It has been part of the Formula One World Championship since 1967. It was first staged at Mosport Park in Bowmanville, Ontario as a sports car event before it alternated between Mosport and Circuit Mont-Tremblant, Quebec after Formula One took over the event. After 1971, safety concerns led to the Grand Prix moving permanently to Mosport. In 1978, after similar safety concerns with Mosport, the Canadian Grand Prix moved to its current home on Île Notre-Dame in Montreal.

In 2005, the Canadian Grand Prix was the most watched Formula One GP in the world. The race was also the third most watched sporting event worldwide, behind the first place Super Bowl XXXIX and the UEFA Champions League Final.

Preceding the qualifying session in 2014, the Grand Prix organisers announced they had agreed to a 10-year extension to keep the Canadian Grand Prix at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve through 2024.

Not again. They still don't have two DRS detection points this year? I do hope it's an old map :P

Montreal rarely fails to deliver the entertainment that many races usually lack. 2007 and 2008 races were exceptionally good. 2011 was memorable, but I find it overrated (the red flag period was annoyingly long and the last 20 laps were driven in slicks. Button was given the win easily after Vettel's mistake).
Too bad Mercedes probably won't have any technical problems this time, so not expecting any surprises in top-3.

Just realized that I'll miss the race due to being on a plane to Oregon on Sunday. Damn. Won't get to see the race until Wednesday.

Excellent, go out the entire evening/night, come home hammered, enjoy the race / fall peacefully asleep if it sucks.

I hate afternoon GP's, most European GP's actually, since I'd rather be out than inside watching a GP.

Thank god for recording :p

Old school team gear. Which year is the BMW Williams jacket? The hat looks circa 2005-6 Renault.

Supposed to be 2001. It's a Bogner original. And the Renault cap is precisely the 2006 version.

We're almost there. I'll keep you updated if I meet a driver guys !

no rain is the best one, as there is football after the race and any delay could mean I'll not watch the finish on tv
