This week guests will be able to walk on the F1 Grand Prix circuit, the locale for the biggest sports event in the country.
Fans will have the chance to experience what the drivers feel (albeit at a much slower pace) at the historic Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve.
See the rubber marks left by cars on the track from the same day, the grandstand that will have already started to welcome thousands of fans, and touch the walls, curbs, and ridges.
