Athletistic will broadcast a live online text broadcast: Formula 1. Canadian Grand Prix. Race. Direct
The Canadian Grand Prix is back on the calendar after a two-year absence due to the coronavirus. For the first time, Formula 1 had been absent from Canada for so long: the Grand Prix had previously only been held in 2009, 1987 and 1975.
It was raining yesterday in qualifying so we saw a number of unexpected results. Since Charles Leclerc picked up a penalty before qualifying, he hasn’t fought for pole position. To the penalty of 10 starting grid positions, after replacing the elements of the power plant on the car, another more severe penalty was added – the additional modules installed today exceeded the maximum limit. Leclerc received a new engine, turbocharger, MGU-H and MGU-K yesterday. The four elements became fourth.
Then Sergio Perez was eliminated in the second segment and in the end he only started 13th. This has been taken advantage of by Fernando Alonso, who won at this track in 2006 and will start on the front row just behind Verstappen, who has no wins in Canada. Among the surprises, it is also worth highlighting the fifth place of Kevin Magnussen and the sixth place of another Haas driver, Mick Schumacher. Second Alpin Esteban Okona will start seventh ahead of George Russell, who took a risk in qualifying and switched from intermediate to soft tires, but immediately crashed at turn two. But today will be dry for us, which means there shouldn’t be such unexpected results. The passing track, the leaders must break through to the top.
