Then qualifying. Should be close at the front. Mercedes, Red Bull and Ferrari with Lotus all looking good. Weather could be the wild card! SkySports F1 : SkyF1 Live Stream

Sunny at 23C by race time. Should be a race where speed can be used. Tire management as well. Vettel sitting in the power seat. He has Bottas to help keep LH busy early on.

If he can just stick to Vettels rear wing and keep LH at bay this could be mighty interesting early on.....

Brilliant drive from Bottas, hopefully he can keep his cool during the race without making any mistake.

Can't wait to watch. I get TNT on my Fios app so I should be able to keep the Cup race on the iPad and F1 on the TV. w00t.

Hourly Weather Forecast for Montreal - weather.com

Should be dry by 11 or 12. Dry race if this holds. I like it! Lets see who has really improved in a dry race. No mixed conditions. I expect Red Bull, Ferrari and Lotus to be strong.

Mercedes quick but doing a slight moonwalk back down the grid with the tire wear. Nico was being warned about his rear tire temps Friday.

Maybe Mercedes will use this as "proof" that they had no advantage/benefit with the tyre test.......

Maybe it will help. That using the current car and current driver part of the rule will be tough at the Tribunal
