It's got a Park and a lake like Albert Park but also a beach! It's got a hairpin, casino and walls like Monaco but not any wall, it's the wall of champions! It's got passionate fans like Monza, Suzuka & Silverstone but also natural wildlife. It's named after one of the GREATS like Imola, Mexico & Interlagos but with a son as F1 Champion. Finally it's like Spa & Nurburgring, a classic that deserves to be in the calendar forever♥‼
You guys are in for a big time life experience. Happy for you. I'm a lucky American -- I'd guess I've been to 8 ( maybe more) F1 races in Montreal. I saw Gilles race there in the rain with a broken front wing. Saw Senna and all the great drivers of that era. Last year I caught qualifying. Montreal is my favorite city in North America. So for this long time F1 fan it's as good as it gets.
WE(Montrealers) Absolutely LOVE our our race and all the global fans it brings into the city. Hoping to see you all back here again this weekend, I'll be front row GrandStand 11, sitting with "the kid' in the Big Canada Top Hat
Well done! I cannot imagine a better presentation of the Montreal Grand Prix. It was nice to hear the conclusion with Daniel Ricardo and his Aussie accent saying « Merci Mon-tree-all. Je t'aime. » 😃
Thank you so much for this video! I think the F1 experience in Montreal is something that needs to be lived in person to truly grasp it but this is the closest thing for those that can only watch it from a distance. I've been many times, starting in 96, and each edition has its own charm, its level of random events, and its history! A great kickoff to the summer events for the city!
It is such an electric atmosphere and a cool vibe during the whole weekend of the Montréal F1 Grand Prix... especially on Crescent street! The Canadian GP is Always one of the most exciting race of the whole calendar. Thank you Chris for an AWESOME video! Once again, your editing is Flawless! Definitely a big Like, And a download... 😏⚜️🇨🇦
Just do not bother purchasing general admission tickets because there are maybe less than a handful of spots where you can actually see any part of the track. Originally, when they first started racing here in Montreal, there were plenty of places to watch with a GA ticket. But year after year, they built more and more grandstands, removing spots where you could sit on the grass and watch the race. At first you were able to watch from in front of the grandstands, because the first row of seats is about 20 feet above the ground, but then they blocked that area off as well. So if you plan on going, spend the extra money and get a seat in a grandstand. If that is out of your budget, drop in to one of Montreal's many sports bars and watch it on TV and spend your money on beer and wings. Or go watch the race for free on the giant outdoor screen on Crescent Street, if they still do that.
'17 go was a record crowd attendance for a few years, It was also Bill Burr's first gp. What a great weekend. Can't stand the crowds tho! Quarter mil people taking the train back, 😂 😂 never again, thank God i only got off at berry stn
As a person who was there in 2023, One big tip i recommend is to not be cheap, do not pick the bleacher seats they are peasant seats, with no confort, and you are squished like a sardine. Please if your budge allows spend the extra 200-300 for actual seats nots bleaches. the experience was a solid 7/10 and the section of seats ruined it for me. Mind you i had a killer view from turn 1 still would never buy cheap seats again (i paid 400 USD) Reply
Hate to make you guys jeallous but I'm from Montreal and I've been to the F1 GP nine times! And I'm less that two hours away from the track which I travel by bus and Metro to get there! I haven't been to the race in many years it got too expensive!
Except for the never ending road repairs, pot holes that created terrible traffic and famous for car thefts in the North America. Montreal is a great city.
Our long harsh winters (freezing and melting) ruins our roads and the best time to repair them is in the warm months ... so it is what it is. Road maintenance in warmer climates is much simpler.
I'd venture a guess that 90% of the people who complain about the lack of engine noise never heard either car in person. The current cars are by no means quiet.
@@gturner38 Compared to the sound that used to be, the new ones are noting. They don't have soul, boring and gutless. I am not taking about the technology or the look of the car witch is much better than the other yers. Can you just imagine the new cars with 2000 v10 engins.. you would experience greatness and pure engin sound. But they took in away from us
i hope Plante pay you well with all your clip!!🤣 again a nice video! si jamais ton idée de faire un vidéo sur Léo Major.... sont parc est à Longueuil.😉
