Track of The Month – June 2019
Montreal – Canda
This June, The Race Centre is off to Canada, with our track of the month being the Circuit Giles Villeneuve in Montreal.
An iconic street track, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is a 2.7-mile circuit and has been a stalwart on the Formula 1 calendar since 1978. Famous for its long fast straights, hard braking corners and close proximity to the walls, including the notorious Wall of Champions, the circuit rewards brave and precise driving, with any mistake usually resulting in a visit to the barriers.
It will take a great lap to master the streets of Montreal this month!
Check out the video below for a flying lap of Circuit Gilles Villeneuve aboard Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes, the circuit where the Englishman took his maiden Formula 1 victory in 2007
We hope you enjoy this fantastic circuit and the cars we have chosen!
