F1 hits Montreal: Canadian Grand Prix weekend schedule, how to watch

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

For the first time since mid-May, the Formula 1 grid enjoyed a week away from the track. A triple-header with races in Italy, Monaco and Spain in three weeks certainly provided a lot of action for fans to enjoy.

The Spanish Grand Prix featured updated regulations regarding flexible wings. Teams across the paddock were anticipating changes to the order as the series tightened the rules on how much front wings could flex. Things didn’t change much, though, as McLaren continued its dominant run in 2025 with Oscar Piastri earning his fifth win in the first nine races.

The week off allowed teams to make the trek across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain to Montreal for the Canadian Grand Prix.

This race has a reputation as one of the more exciting events on the calendar. The 2011 Canadian Grand Prix featured six safety car periods and took slightly over four hours to complete, but Jenson Button won it on the final lap. More recently, last year’s race featured mixed conditions as Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, Mercedes’ George Russell and McLaren’s Lando Norris all battled for victory on a drying track.

Piastri and Norris combined for six pole positions and and seven wins out of the first nine races. Can they continue this run in Montreal? Here’s everything you need to know about the Canadian Grand Prix.

What time does the Canadian Grand Prix start?

The Canadian Grand Prix starts at 2 p.m. ET at the Circuit Gilles Villenueve in Montreal.

The track is named for Canadian F1 driver Gilles Villenueve who raced for McLaren and Ferrari in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

What channel is the Canadian Grand Prix on?

The Canadian Grand Prix will be broadcast on ABC this week. Pre-race coverage begins on ABC at 12:30 p.m. ET.
