2013 Canadian Grand Prix
Going Into This Race
Pre-Race Report
Previous race
Nico Rosberg won the Monaco Grand Prix for Mercedes, repeating his father Keke Rosberg’s 1983 victory at the same circuit. Felipe Massa missed qualifying after crashing in the final practice session, starting from the pit lane.
Between-race developments
The FIA announces that, after consultations with all teams, it is referring the Mercedes–Pirelli tyre test at the Circuit de Catalunya to its International Tribunal as a potential breach of testing regulations. The FIA separately cleared an earlier Ferrari tyre test as it used a 2011 car, which does not constitute a breach.
Romain Grosjean receives a ten-place grid penalty for this race for colliding with Daniel Ricciardo at Monaco.
Pirelli introduces two new rear-tyre specifications for Canada, reverting to the belt pack used in the 2011 and 2012 tyres to reduce delaminations — the first tyre modification of the season.
Milestones
The 50th running of the Canadian Grand Prix.
Tyre choices
Pirelli brings the medium (prime) and super-soft (option) compounds, compared with the soft and super-soft selection offered in 2012.
