F1 Canadian Grand Prix: What is the Wall of Champions?
This weekend, F1 heads to Canada for the 10th round of the 2025 world championship, at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
The circuit is named after Canadian F1 legend Gilles Villeneuve, who won six grands prix between 1977 and 1982, and his son, 1997 world champion Jacques Villeneuve, also raced in F1.
The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve has been on the F1 calendar since 1978 and is known for the infamous ‘Wall of Champions’ at Turn 14.
Several rookies in the 2025 season will face the challenge of this historic track, while experienced champions like Hamilton, Verstappen, and Alonso will try to avoid the wall’s legacy.
The Wall of Champions’ history includes incidents involving drivers like Michael Schumacher, Damon Hill, and Jacques Villeneuve, making it a notorious feature of the Canadian GP.
