One of the drivers' favorite circuits is the fast, low-downforce one. The course is quite stop-and-go, with many heavy-braking chicanes and the iconic hairpin to make the anchors work hard. The track is swift and fluid when it comes out of the corners, and the Wall of Champions, named after Damon Hill, Jacques Villeneuve, and Michael Schumacher's excursions into it during the 1999 Canadian Grand Prix weekend, lies right at the conclusion of the lap.
Grandstand 15, 21, or 24, the three that flank the hairpin, have to be it. It gives the area a genuine amphitheatre feel while also allowing you to observe all of the hairpin overtakes.
The Montrealais take their Grand Prix weekend very seriously, with the picturesque city transforming into an F1-crazed party town in the week leading up to the event. The Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve is one of Formula One's most relaxed venues, thanks to its green environment.
