F1 coming back to Montreal

Montreal mayor Denis Coderre said Tuesday the Canadian Grand Prix will be back next June, announcing there was an agreement in principle between race promoter Groupe Octane and Formula One World Championship Limited. Doubts about the race at Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve arose last year when F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone wondered if organizers could fulfil their promise to upgrade the circuit’s pit and paddock areas, grandstands and medical centre by 2017.
