Canadian GP: race preview
After a week off, the teams are returning to the paddock in Montreal to battle it out at the iconic Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in hopes of victory at the 2023 Canadian Grand Prix.
Max Verstappen will be looking to maintain his barnstorming season in his Red Bull, and safe bettors will stick with the Dutchman. However, with plenty of rain forecast over the weekend, veterans Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso will no doubt see this as an opportunity to snatch points away from the Austrian fizzy pop purveyors.
What's more, after a Mercedes 2-3 in Miami, topping the podium is beginning to look like a slight possibility for Toto and co., with Aston Martin's new-found speed now being matched by the Silver Arrows after the huge design update debuted at Monaco.
Off-track, we've heard rumours of drama in the Ferrari camp, with Charles Leclerc reportedly being unsatisfied with the team's performance—perhaps not a huge surprise. Lewis Hamilton's contract extension at Mercedes has scuppered any speculation that the Monegasque would join Russell next season, though, so for now he'll have to make do.

How to watch the Canadian Grand Prix live stream from outside your country
If you're abroad for this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix, you'll likely find you're unable to access your usual Formula 1 coverage like you would at home. This isn't necessarily cause for alarm, but rather the result of geo-blocking – best understood as digital borders that restrict certain services and content to certain parts of the world.
Fortunately, there's a convenient way around this in the form of a VPN. This is a nifty bit of software that lets you whizz around these digital borders, thereby allowing you to globe trot and still access your preferred F1 live stream. It's a completely legal workaround, very affordable, and super easy to use – allow us to explain more.
