Most convenient would probably be the Metro, but try to avoid travelling to/from the circuit at peak times as there will be delays/queues. Otherwise, you can try to get an Uber or Taxi to take you to the Casino – there’s an entry gate to the circuit from the Casino. But all depends where you will be sitting/watching the action.

Hi Andy, that will be a great experience with your son. The best chance to see drivers is normally at the open house on Thursday morning, but this is not yet confirmed for 2022 – and you won’t be there till Saturday! Otherwise it’s hard to meet drivers at the track in Montreal without a Paddock pass. The only other thing I can suggest would be to check out a few of the best 5-star hotels in the centre of Montreal. You will probably see some other fans waiting around if a team/s are staying there.

I am traveling from NY with my son who is seven years old. This will be our first Formula 1 experience and we are so excited. What do you recommend for us to see the drivers and get autographs? We will be arriving on the 18th. Is there going to be any special events for kids?

For sure you can take an Uber direct from the airport to the circuit, but you may be better dropping your bags off first at wherever you are staying – you may not get into the circuit with a large bag. It’s also possible to take public transport all the way – airport bus, followed by the Metro.

So excited to go my first GP. I’m looking forward to the whole experience in downtown and partying with the fans!

I won’t arrive until Friday afternoon though, just before P2, do you know if I can take an Uber or metro directly from the airport?

Hi Amy, good for you. You will have a great time in Montreal with F1 Experiences. Normally the best time to see the drivers is when the circuit has “Open House” on Thursday morning. You can do a pit lane walk, and normally there is a drivers autograph session too – however, I can’t confirm definitely that this will happen in 2022 if there are still some COVID restrictions. Depending on the package you have with F1 Experiences, it’s also possible that you will meet a driver or two with them. Some packages have a guest appearance by a driver, and some have access to the F1 Paddock – where there’s a very good chance to get close to the drivers. More information about Open House is in our Trackside post.

Just bought our tix!! We went through F1 Experiences and have access Thur-Sun. Thanks!
