Driver Insight:  “Canadian Tire Motorsport Park is my all-time favorite racetrack in North America. Last year we won the race from pole position, so it’s great turf for Porsche. The special thing about this track is that just about every corner flows into the next one without any straights in between. That poses a very special challenge and differentiates this fast circuit from most others. When the corners merge together rather than just a corner followed by a straight, it’s the driver who makes more of a difference. I like such challenges.” – Nick Tandy, Driver No. 911 Porsche 911 RSR.
