Canadian GP technical review
Major upgrades may be on the way mid-season, but all the teams bring new packages to Canada because of its unique low-downforce nature. Gary Anderson takes a look at the latest technical updates

The event in Montreal puts pretty unique demands on the cars. Teams run with less downforce than at other tracks because there are only low-speed corners, and a big premium is put on aerodynamically efficient cars.
