It's a very special place for me - Hamilton

By on

After a dream victory at Monaco for Lewis Hamilton, the young Briton travels to Montreal for the Canadian Grand Prix. Last season, Lewis won his first ever Grand Prix at the Gilles Villeneuve Circuit and of course the McLaren driver hopes to score again at Montreal.

Lewis Hamilton said: "As I said on Sunday, winning at Monaco is the highlight of my career, it was a very emotional victory for me as it is something I have dreamed of since I was a kid. I will never forget the moment, but now my only focus with the team is Canada. We have good momentum right now and we are pushing to keep that going and to keep developing. The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is one of my favourite tracks and following my debut win there last year it is a very special place for me and I hope that we will be quick there again this year. It is renowned for its difficult track surfaces, particularly with tyre graining, and the walls. Despite being very fast, it can feel like a street circuit with the barriers very close, but it is good fun to drive at and I am looking forward to getting back there."
