  • El Circuit Gilles Villeneuve es un circuito de carreras semiurbano utilizado para el Gran Premio de Canadá de Fórmula 1.

  • Circuit de Gilles Villeneuve was built around the site of the 1967 International Expo. The fair was notable for Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome. In 1978, the circuit opened for business. It was originally named Circuit Île de Notre-Dame, but due to the death of Gilles Villeneuve at the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix, the circuit was named after him. The circuit is a hard one with little run-off. This has caused some to question the circuit's safety. Italian Driver Riccardo Paletti was killed in 1982 when he crashed into Didlier Pironi's stalled Ferrari. Robert Kubica was injured there in 2007.
