“One thing that stands out here in Montreal is the fans,” says Naomi Schiff, F1 analyst and ambassador, speaking from the American Express Elite Suite at the Canadian Grand Prix. “They bring great energy to the track—you can really tell it’s a dedicated audience.”

It’s race day in Montreal, and the city is in high gear! Fans were revved up as the cars hit Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on Sunday — and George Russell gave them something to cheer about by taking the Canadian Grand Prix victory for Mercedes.

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is, like other venues on the Formula 1 calendar, the indirect result of a city hosting a major event unrelated to racing. In this case, of the Expo 67, the World’s Fair held in 1967 in Montreal. The track is located on Île Notre-Dame, a man-made island in the St. Lawrence River.

He is the first Italian driver in 16 years to finish on the F1 podium. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.
