Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant is a world-class, 4.26-km (2.65-mi) road course built at the foothills of Mount Tremblant on the Laurentian Mountain Range in southern Quebec, Canada. This raceway has hosted high-profile events like the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix and other racing competitions such Can-Am, Trans-Am, or the Champ Car World Series. Several renowned professional drivers like the F1 World Champion Michael Schumacher, who nicknamed it “The little Nurburgring,” were positively impressed by the 15-turn track and its clever design, which takes full advantage of the hilly characteristics of the terrain.

The inaugural race in Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant was back in 1964, and since then, the track has received several upgrades, the latest by road course designer Alan Wilson in 2000. The Quebecois climate is variable throughout the year, with mild, high humidity summers and snowy winters, so due diligence is necessary for preparing in advance.  The South Loop is fast to travel, with long semi-straight segments and only one tight corner at turn eight, but as the drivers head north, the elevation changes in the road and the smaller angle in the corners make the track a lot more technical. The uphill segment after the Bridge Turn, The Kink, Namerow, and the Final Line is quite stunning to watch and offers plenty of room for passing in the last stretch.
