Canadian Tire Motorsport Park

Located just east of Toronto in Ontario, Canada, Canadian Tire Motorsport Park—still affectionately known as Mosport—is one of North America’s most historic and high-speed road courses. Opened in 1961, the circuit hosted the first-ever Formula One Canadian Grand Prix in 1967 and has welcomed nearly every major racing series since. Its name, Mosport, comes from blending “motor” and “sport,” a nod to the original company that built the track. With its flowing layout, steep elevation changes, and legendary corners, CTMP remains a fan and driver favorite for its raw, old-school character.

Key Challenges & Driving Notes

• Turn 1: A fast, downhill right-hander taken nearly flat out—sets the tone for the lap.
• Turn 2: A blind, double-apex downhill left that’s both technical and dangerous. Easy to overcommit here.
• Moss Corner (Turns 5A & 5B): A tight, double-apex hairpin where getting back on power early is key for the long back straight.
• Turn 8: Fast and narrow—mistakes here often end in the wall.
• Turn 10: The final corner leading onto the front straight—critical for setting up overtakes into Turn 1.
