Canadian GP - Track Guide
Here's everything you need to know about the Canadian Grand Prix, officially the Formula 1 AWS Grand Prix du Canada 2022.
The Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, or Circuit Ile Notre-Dame, as it was first named, was built on the man-made Notre Dame Island, in the middle of the St Lawrence River in Montreal, after the end of the 1976 Montreal Summer Olympics, with the track hosting its first race in 1978.

What Montreal gave us in 2019
The last time we raced in Canada, a very controversial race took place. In a battle for the lead, on lap 48 out of 70, Sebastian Vettel ran across the grass at turn 3-4, "rejoining the track unsafely and forcing another car [Lewis Hamilton] off the track", as said in the official FIA document. Vettel, while on the lead, received a 5-second penalty and dropped to P2, which promoted Hamilton to P1. That was Hamilton's 7th, record win in Montreal.
