What time is the 2026 Canadian GP and how can I watch it?

Formula 1 returns to the iconic Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve in Montreal for the fifth round of the 2026 season. Following a strong performance in Miami where McLaren's Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri secured a double podium behind race winner Kimi Antonelli, the team aims to maintain their momentum against Mercedes. The weekend schedule includes the Grand Prix on Sunday, May 24, at 16:00 local time, with full coverage available on F1 TV Pro and official timing apps. Historically, the track is known for high-stakes drama, notably George Russell's victory in 2025 and the tension between McLaren drivers. While the weather forecast is currently temperate, potential rain on Saturday and Sunday adds a layer of uncertainty for the teams. Additionally, the weekend will feature F2 action and an expanded three-race format for F1 Academy, where Emma Felbermayr looks to defend her championship lead.
