It's been the Kimi Antonelli show recently, with the teenager sealing a third consecutive race win in Miami to move 20 points clear of his Mercedes teammate George Russell at the top of the charts.
The pressure is on Russell to respond and Canada, where he won last year and was on pole in 2024, is an opportunity for him to do so.
It's not all about Mercedes, however. Ferrari, Red Bull, and McLaren can all take positives from the Miami GP and will be looking to make a statement.
Circuit de Gilles-Villeneuve is a favourite among Formula 1 drivers – and fans can tune in to extensive coverage of the Canadian Grand Prix to see why.
