The Canadian Grand Prix is a popular event among the Formula 1 drivers. The city of Montreal is breathing Formula 1 when the circus travels to Canada. Speaking about the upcoming Grand Prix Giancarlo Fisichella said: "Montreal is probably the event I enjoy the most. I love the city and the circuit and I have always done well, with four podiums in four years from 1997 - 2000 and two fourth place finishes. Although I have never won it, I did lead the 2005 race before retiring with a hydraulic problem.
"To do well, you need to have a well balanced car with a good aero compromise and you have to be gentle with the brakes, which is always a big challenge in Montreal. For this race we will have a new aero package that we tested in Paul Ricard three weeks ago. It felt good, and again my car was well balanced and the times were in line with our expectations."
"I think a midfield finish is possible in Canada, unless of course the weather gives us a big hand again, as it did in Monte Carlo!"
