Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to the Canadian Grand Prix Weekend thread.

Details about this race can be found here.

Sessions

This thread will cover all the sessions this weekend, so that’s all 3 practice sessions, qualifying, and the race.

We will monitor how this goes to see if we need more granularity.

Spoilers

The rules around spoilers are not yet in place, therefore we won’t be enforcing anything around spoilers this weekend. This goes beyond the scope of this thread too.

If you do not want spoilers, please do not look in this community this weekend.

The aim is to have a finished set of rules ready by mid next week.

    Which is weird considering the fact that a few years ago stroll was pretty good in wet conditions

      I always felt Stroll isn’t good in the rain per se… but he was very quick to change from wet/inters to slicks

      He gambles and it paid off a few times

        Well he has front row starts in Monza 2017 and Istanbul 2020. Both were wet qualifying with almost everybody on same tyres. Stroll gambled during neither of them

          It might be that he has been Vandoorned already. His spirit has been broken.

          You have to believe you’re the fastest or you can just hang it up. Lance does not believe he is faster than Fernando it doesn’t seem. If your goal is to do slightly worse than Alonso, you’re always going to do worse than Alonso.
