Track Profile
The Canadian Grand Prix takes place on a semi-permanent street circuit located on Île Notre-Dame.

Overtaking is possible, especially into the final corner, but tire strategy and pit execution remain key.
Canadian Grand Prix 2025 Form Guide
McLaren
McLaren has dominated the season so far. Piastri has won five races, while Norris has taken two. The team’s car is highly competitive on high-speed circuits, such as Montreal.
Red Bull
Max Verstappen is a three-time winner in Canada, but recent performances have been below his usual standards. He struggled in Spain and will need a perfect weekend to close the gap. How will he perform in the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix?
Ferrari
Charles Leclerc has shown flashes of pace, especially in Monaco and Barcelona. However, Ferrari remains inconsistent and lacks the straight-line speed to match McLaren over a whole race.
Nico Hulkenberg
Hulkenberg has delivered impressive midfield performances this year and has a good record at this circuit. He remains a strong outside bet for a top-ten finish. But where will he finish in the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix?
Betting Odds and Predictions
- Oscar Piastri: 13/10
- Lando Norris: 2/1
- Max Verstappen: 4/1
- Charles Leclerc: 16/1
- Top Ten Finish – Hulkenberg: 9/2
Betting Prediction: McLaren is expected to control the front row again. Piastri is the favorite to win, but Norris remains close. Verstappen could challenge for the podium if qualifying goes well. Watch for Hulkenberg to collect points quietly.
Final Word
With championship implications and a demanding track layout, the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix promises another thrilling chapter in this season’s story. All eyes are on McLaren, but as Montreal has shown many times before, surprises can come fast.
