Canadian Grand Prix CEO Jean-Philippe Paradis acknowledged Monday his team was eager to make the Formula One event shine over the weekend. He hopes this year's race will serve as a springboard to making the event one of the most beloved stops on the F1 calendar.

Formula One heads to Montreal, Canada, for the Canadian Grand Prix this Sunday afternoon. The Pirelli Canadian Grand Prix takes place at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve and consists of 68 laps around the 4.36 km hybrid street circuit that occasionally features more groundhogs than cars on the track.

Max Verstappen and George Russell agreed that there “was not really a gap” for Lando Norris in his battle with McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri at the Canadian Grand Prix.  Norris and Piastri made contact while duelling for fourth place in the closing stages of Sunday’s race in Montreal in the first major collision between the F1 2025 title contenders.
