F1 on TV: Canada 2017
If Suzuka didn't exist, there's a very good chance that the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal would be my favorite track on the F1 calendar. Of course, in this world Suzuka does exist, but at least Montreal has poutine, right? Why do I bother saying that? Because this week, the Noisy Circus is in Montreal for the 2017 Grand Prix of Canada! Here's the track map:
You want fast? Canada can do fast; that back stretch from the Hairpin to the final chicane is as fast a run as you can find in F1. You want slow? That Hairpin I just mentioned is pretty darn slow, particularly as you're coming off a full-speed blast from the first chicane. You want marmots? Boy, does Montreal have marmots! And every now and again, you get a four-hour rain delay! You can't beat fun north of the border, you betcha.
And here's the schedule for the Legendary Announce Team's broadcasts! Take a close look at the networks, we're all over the darn place this weekend!
Friday
Practice 2: 1p - 230p live on NBCSN
Saturday
Quals: 12p - 130p live on CNBC
Sunday
2017 Grand Prix of Canada: 1p - 3p live on NBC
All times Pond Central. Accept no substitutes! Sometime afterwards of course there will be the usual F1Update!, so ask for it by name.
