F1 Extends Montreal GP Until 2035: More Excitement in Canada

Formula 1: Canadian Grand Prix to Stay in Montreal Until 2035

Formula 1 and the promoters of the Canadian Grand Prix announced a four-year contract extension, which ensures the presence of the competition in Montreal until the year 2035. This agreement extends the previous contract, which already guaranteed the career until 2031. The news was received with enthusiasm by the fans and the organization. The Canadian Grand Prix, which held its 54th edition at the Gilles Villeneuve circuit last weekend, is the longest-running race outside of Europe.

The circuit has hosted the event since 1978 and will continue to do so thanks to the new agreement between Formula 1, promoter Octane Racing and the governments of Canada and Quebec. In addition, a “long-term extension” of the rights agreement with Bell Media in Canada was announced.

As Formula 1 celebrates its 75th anniversary, it is appropriate that we announce an extension with the Canadian Grand Prix, a race with an incredible history in our sport and which bears the name of a true legend like Gilles Villeneuve.

Stefano Domenicali, CEO of Formula 1

Domenicali also highlighted the energy of Montreal and the passion of its fans, expressing his satisfaction at continuing to compete there until the 2035 season. The F1 CEO thanked Octane Racing Group for their efforts in improving the circuit and everyone involved in the event, including the Canadian fans.
