Hola Folks!
The Formula One racing teams are gearing up for Montreal for the Canada Grand Prix scheduled on Sunday 12 June.
Out of the 6 World champions racing this season ‘its Sebastian Vettel who has proven his Metal.’
Vettel leads the pack with 143 Points winning 5 out of 6 grand prix this season. Vettel has already shown signs that its hard to match his speed and is taking full advantage of the new Drag Reduction System (DRS).
Lewis Hamilton who is currently 2nd in drivers standing is 58 points behind Vettel and he will need some magic to snatch the driver’s championship from Vettel who almost has both his hands on the trophy.
So let’s take a look at the circuit.
Built on an artificial island of Notre Dame, the Montreal circuit is fast but requires heavy braking, putting a lot of strain on the tyres and it will be interesting to see how the new Pirelli tyres last on Sunday. The characteristics of Canada mean that we won’t be seeing a one stop strategy this weekend.

Analysts say it’s going to be another Vettel show.
We at OP are also backing up Vettel but, we have people supporting different drivers among ourselves.
I think I’ll leave it up to you guys..
What do you think? Vettel, Hamilton or someone else?
Gaurav Awal(Code name D2) is pursuing Engineering. He love gadgets, movies, sports and music and that is most probably the reason that he is a key man who is going to post a lot especially in all the forums he just named. He too is a ‘take it as it comes’ kind of a guy. He, as per me holds the record for watching the maximum number of movies in a week, at least in the group of people I know!
A word from him. ” Hola Guys. I really love feedback and suggestions so you can always let me know if you don’t like any of my posts.
All I want to say is enjoy your stay at OP. We love our readers, you make us feel blessed. Adios- D2″
