For one high-octane weekend in June, Montréal’s Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve racecourse roars to life with the Formula One Grand Prix du Canada. On Île Notre-Dame and accessible by metro, the 4.361-kilometre (2.5 miles) speedway is a favourite among drivers, cyclists, joggers, walkers and in-line skaters who test their speeds.
Named for Québec F1 driving legend Gilles Villeneuve, the challenging track reflects his driving style: aggressive and technical.
In 1978, cars and drivers in the North American Formula Atlantic championship competed in the first official race on the circuit, just two weeks before Gilles Villeneuve drove his Ferrari to take the checkered flag in Montréal’s first-ever Formula One Grand Prix du Canada.
