From memory, the ceremony is just above the pit exit, and from what I remember, yes, the crowds usually flood the track after the race, although the crowd control had been getting tighter and tighter in recent years. If you can get there early, definitely the best GA places available are around the Senna corner (the first combination after the start), although you would have to be a pretty early bird to catch that worm, but it would definitely be worth it. Hope you can get a good spot.

Anywhere at the hairpin is good, YY and ZZ should be high up, giving you that much more of a view. I don’t know which one 15 is exactly, but either way you’re likely to see some passing moves and depending where exactly your seats are, you might have a view of the approach to the hairpin and/or down the straight with the cars speeding away from you on the long straight.

Don’t know if this comes too late to be of any help, but you can try looking through the McGill and Concordia universities’ classified ads. Most of the stuff for rent is more long term, but there are some short-term things and you can always call here and there and ask if they know of something available just for a day or two. Good luck with it.

I have an extra GA all weekend ticket to sell. Friend of mine could not make it. If you want it let me know. I am in Montreal already, so if you are interested we could work out a plan for you to get it from me tomorrow. I will sell it for the same price I got it for – C$148.

We aren’t driving up until Sunday morning (from NY), so earliest we’ll likely be there is 9AM.

If any fellow f1fanatic’s in general admission are getting there earlier on Sunday I’ll buy you your favorite drivers/teams T-Shirt if you can try and save spots for 2 of us!

Just reply here and I’ll send you contact details!
