Circuit character

A point-and-squirt blast on the Île Notre-Dame: chicanes, big kerbs and walls close enough to end a weekend in half a second. Low drag and brake endurance set the car spec; the Wall of Champions polices the limit.

Where the passes happen

  • Final chicane (T13–14) after the Casino straight
  • T10 hairpin: the classic lunge
  • T1–2 Senna corner complex

Analisi

The Ferrari read

01

Hamilton ran long from P5 on the grid, vaulted the McLarens in the cycle, and defended P2 from Verstappen's fresher tyres by half a second: Ferrari's best Sunday of 2026.

02

Leclerc's P4 (+44.151s) was damage limitation after opening-lap front-wing damage compromised his balance throughout.

03

33 points across sprint and race made Canada Ferrari's biggest weekend score of the season so far.
