The Canadian Grand Prix this weekend marks the return of F1, and it could bring with it some poor weather.
Former F1 driver Martin Brundle has expressed his belief that the current grid is apprehensive about how the 2026 cars will handle wet conditions. The recent major technical changes in F1 this year have significantly altered aerodynamics and power units. With limited wet track testing, teams remain uncertain about the new cars’ performance in heavy rain. Brundle notes that drivers’ concerns about the cars’ power, reduced downforce, and grip in wet conditions are valid. The upcoming Canadian Grand Prix may introduce rain, potentially adding drama to the race. Brundle anticipates that the challenging Montreal layout could lead to Safety Car interventions due to on-track crashes.
