The Canadian Grand Prix faces a new threat as a severe weather warning is issued.
In a turn of events that could significantly impact this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix, Environment Canada has issued a severe thunderstorm watch for the Montreal area. As of 10:15 a.m., the watch replaced an earlier weather statement, signaling worsening conditions that could pose a threat to the track events scheduled at the iconic Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
Such challenging weather conditions are not new for the Montreal circuit, which is notorious for its dramatic wet-weather races that often lead to unexpected race dynamics and surprise podium finishers.Although the chances of rain decrease slightly by Free Practice 2 later today, racers will still face a 50% chance of nighttime showers, which could wash away any rubber laid down during the day, fundamentally altering grip levels for Saturday's sessions.
