The 2022 Canadian Grand Prix (officially known as the Formula 1 AWS Grand Prix du Canada 2022) was a Formula One motor race, which was held on 19 June 2022 at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It was the 9th round of the 2022 Formula One World Championship.
Max Verstappen took pole position, in a rain affected qualifying, from Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz Jr. Verstappen converted his pole into victory, ahead of Sainz and Lewis Hamilton.
Background
The race was the 57th running of the
Championship standings before the race
In the Drivers' Championship, Max Verstappen led with 150 points, 21 points ahead of teammate Sergio Pérez in second, with Charles Leclerc in third position. Red Bull Racing led Ferrari by 80 points, and Mercedes by 118 points in the Constructors' Championship.[6]
Entrants
The drivers and teams were the same as the season entry list with no additional stand-in drivers for the race.[7]
Tyre choices
Tyre supplier Pirelli brought the C3, C4, and C5 tyre compounds (designated hard, medium, and soft, respectively) for teams to use at the event.[8]
Practice
Three practice sessions for the Grand Prix were held, each one hour in length. The first practice session took place on 17 June, at 14:00 local time (
The second practice session took place on 17 June at 17:00 local time.[9] Charles Leclerc stopped at the exit of the pitlane because of issues with his turbocharger.[12] After the session, Leclerc would require a change of turbo, resulting in a 10-place grid drop for exceeding his allocation of turbos.[13] Sebastian Vettel was released into the path of Magnussen in the pit lane. The FIA deemed the release to be unsafe and Aston Martin team was fined €5,000.[14] Sainz was also released into the path of Lando Norris, but the FIA did not feel it was unsafe. Verstappen was once again fastest, with Leclerc and Sainz in second and third, respectively.[15]
The third practice session was held at 13:00 local time on 18 June.[9] Rain meant the drivers were completing laps on the wet and intermediate tyres throughout the session. Yuki Tsunoda, Magnussen and Vettel all went off at turn 1, while Verstappen spun onto the grass at turn 2.[16] Sainz took to the escape road at turn 3 and used the run off at turn 8. Alonso was fastest, with Pierre Gasly and Vettel in second and third respectively.[17]
Qualifying
Qualifying report
The first section of qualifying had all drivers completing their laps with no issues.
The second section of qualifying had Albon in the wall at turn 5 early in the session.
In the third part of qualifying, all drivers completed banker laps on intermediate tyres with Max Verstappen putting himself on provisional pole. Noticing a dry line around most of the track, George Russell gambled on slick tyres for his final attempt, believing that if he could survive the wet turns 1 and 2, he would have a shot at pole.[25] At turn 2 on his qualifying lap, Russell drove through a puddle, spun, and hit the wall. He was able to carry on and found his way back to the pit lane.[26] Verstappen took pole position, Fernando Alonso took second, and Sainz was third after making a mistake out of the final corner. Hamilton finished fourth and the two Haases were fifth and sixth,[27] their best team qualifying since the 2018 German Grand Prix.[28]
