Going by the circuit history and the previous records, Mercedes are favourites going into the weekend but the Ferrari team will be in close contention. Renault is bringing in an engine upgrade for Montreal, but don't expect Red-Bull racing cars to be as dominant as they were in the streets of Monaco, particularly through the final sector which has the long back straight and favours cars with a better straight-line speed.
The Mercedes and the Ferrari engine has performed better than Renault and the Honda, so considering Montreal is a high power output circuit expect teams running Ferrari and Mercedes engines to perform better.
In the midfield, it's gonna be tight as ever, but Williams and Haas should be up among the midfield pack after their disappointing performance in Monaco. The Toro Rosso, especially Gasly will also be fighting to be on top of the midfield cars. A Renault upgrade means more power in the Mclarens.
