Montreal F1 Track's Extreme Makeover After Last Year's Disaster

Montreal's Circuit Gilles Villeneuve Undergoes Major Overhaul After 2024 Grand Prix Disasters Following the chaos of the 2024 Canadian Grand Prix, where heavy rain turned the track into a mud-soaked mess and caused leaks in the paddock, organizers have undertaken significant renovations at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal. The 2025 race is set to be drastically different. "Everything is now fully synchronized and tested," said an organizer, emphasizing the improvements. "It's safe to say we've done a total 180 compared to last year." The upgrades include fully waterproofed paddock buildings and a completely redesigned communication system to handle evacuations and weather alerts more effectively. The improvements aim to ensure a smooth and safe event for drivers and spectators alike, avoiding a repeat of the 2024 race's issues. The upgrades are a testament to the commitment to hosting a successful Grand Prix in Montreal.
