Couple of Shots from the F1 Track

Couple of quickie shots from Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal where F1 holds the Canadian Grand Prix every year. Fun fact, you can still see the the tire marks left from the F1 cars. It's a public road and anyone can drive around the track though there is a speed limit which I very loosely observed . Well worth the visit if you have the time to take a quick look!

Sadly no, had to literally stop the car and jump out as they don't want you to stop on the track, but I just HAD to take a photo of the car on the starting grid.

Cool. It must be a great opportunity to use a dash cam going around the track!
I guess the wall of champions doesn't luck so fun when you drive your own car

Yes it's open to the public, but there's also a 30 km/h (20 MPH) speed limit which I may or may not have chosen to ignore
