Will we have a Formula One Grand Prix of Canada in Montreal this year?
Will we have a Honda Indy in Toronto this year?
Both races were cancelled last year because of COVID but a year later, with vaccines going into arms, there is hope these races, can be held.
So here is the situation as of this morning.
The Grand Prix of Canada, scheduled for June 11-13 is on. The F1 team in Montreal is working as if there will be a race. However, they will know for sure sometime in the middle of April when the government says whether it will be a go or no go. Why then? Because it takes two months to set everything up. So April 10 would be the deadline.

And a new racing season dawns, as it has for close to six decades, with the Rolex 24 At Daytona.
Unique among the world’s headline motorsports events, there are no competing races on the international calendar this weekend. Thus, the Daytona International Speedway paddock is akin to a scene in a “Star Wars” cantina this week, such is the diverse cast of characters attracted to the event from throughout the motorsports universe.
