The race was won by [[Lewis Hamilton]], starting from pole position, in his first season in the top formula. It was Hamilton's first of an eventual [[List of Formula One driver records|record]] breaking {{f1stat|HAM|wins}} victories in Formula One. [[Nick Heidfeld]] finished second and [[Alexander Wurz]] was third, making it the first Grand Prix of the 2007 season that drivers from teams other than [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] and [[McLaren]] achieved podium positions. It was the final podium of Alexander Wurz's career and, {{as of|2024|lc=y}}, the last achieved by an Austrian driver.

==Report==

===Background=== A test session was held on May 17 and 18 at the [[Circuit Paul Ricard]] in France, with the track configured to replicate the characteristics of the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve for the final two days after it had been in the style of the [[Circuit de Monaco|Monaco]] for the first two. Despite the fact that the [[McLaren]] team had dominated on the Monaco set up of the circuit, [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] were better on the Canadian set up.<ref name="paul ricard testing 1">{{cite news|title=Paul Ricard day three – Raikkonen takes charge |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/5/6112.html|date=May 18, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930214304/http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/5/6112.html|archive-date=September 30, 2007 }}</ref><ref name="paul ricard testing 2">{{cite news|title=Paul Ricard day four – Raikkonen once more |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/5/6116.html|date=May 18, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930213441/http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/5/6116.html|archive-date=September 30, 2007 }}</ref>

[[Kimi Räikkönen]] had the fastest time on the first day, with a time of 1:28.833. Rain after lunch caused the test to be halted, when the test resumed Räikkönen was forced to finish early when his car experienced electronic problems. [[Scott Speed]] achieved the second fastest time, two tenths of a second behind Räikkönen, with seven tenths separating the first eight drivers. The [[Red Bull Racing|Red Bull]] team focused on testing their suspension. [[Rubens Barrichello]] and [[Christian Klien]] shared testing for the [[Honda in Formula One|Honda team]] over the day, however Klien's engine failed on his first lap. [[James Rossiter]] in the [[Super Aguri F1|Super Aguri]] completed the most laps with 115.<ref>{{cite news |first=Pablo |last=Elizalde |title=Raikkonen leads the way at Paul Ricard |url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/58885 |publisher=Autosport.com |date=May 17, 2007 |access-date=August 11, 2007 | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070812222459/http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/58885| archive-date=August 12, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref>

Räikkönen was also the fastest on the second day with a time of 1:28.624, with [[Renault in Formula One|Renault]] driver [[Giancarlo Fisichella]] ending the day with the second fastest time. Fisichella also completed 111 laps, the second most of the day, behind James Rossiter's 131. [[Pedro de la Rosa]] was third fastest despite completing fewer laps than other drivers due to his engine failing early in the day. The testing session was stopped twice, when [[Adrian Sutil|Adrian Sutil's]] and [[Jenson Button|Jenson Button's]] engines failed. Red Bull continued to perform high and low downforce work and [[BMW in Formula One|BMW]] performed low and medium downforce work.<ref>{{cite news |first=Pablo |last=Elizalde |title=Raikkonen finishes Ricard test on top |url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/58916 |publisher=Autosport.com |date=May 18, 2007 |access-date=August 11, 2007 }}</ref> Fisichella was optimistic about the race after these tests saying "he had more grip, the brakes were good and the front suspension gave him a better turn-in".<ref>{{cite news |first=Michele |last=Lostia |title=Fisichella upbeat after Ricard test |url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/58947 |publisher=Autosport.com |date=May 19, 2007 |access-date=August 11, 2007 | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070821123313/http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/58947| archive-date=August 21, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref>

During the two weeks leading up to the Grand Prix, Räikkönen and [[Felipe Massa]] released statements to the press saying they believed that everything would be different in Canada because of the very different conditions—as shown at Paul Ricard.<ref name="raikkonen pre-race">{{cite news|title=McLaren will not dominate Canada – Räikkönen |publisher=GPUpdate.net|url=http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/154188/mclaren-will-not-dominate-canada-raikkonen/|date=June 6, 2007|access-date=January 28, 2011}}</ref> [[Fernando Alonso]] believed McLaren had momentum from their win in Monaco, and [[Martin Whitmarsh]] said that they were realistic about dominating the race.<ref>{{cite news|title=2007 CANADIAN GRAND PRIX PREVIEW |publisher=mclaren.com|url=http://www.mclaren.com/f1season/2007/canada/preview.php|date=June 1, 2007|access-date=July 14, 2007 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070711091947/http://www.mclaren.com/f1season/2007/canada/preview.php |archive-date = July 11, 2007}}</ref>

===Practice=== The race was preceded by three practice sessions.<ref name="FIARegulations">{{cite web |date=5 March 2007 |title=2007 Formula One Sporting Regulations |url=https://www.fia.com/resources/documents/149730155__2007_F1_SPORTING_REGULATIONS.pdf |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070323131351/https://www.fia.com/resources/documents/149730155__2007_F1_SPORTING_REGULATIONS.pdf |archive-date=23 March 2007 |access-date=11 August 2025 |publisher=Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile |pages=18–19, 21}}</ref> Practice started on the Friday with Alonso leading at the end of both practice sessions. In both sessions, he outpaced his teammate and the closest Ferrari driven by Felipe Massa. BMW Sauber were pleased with 5th place in the first session and 7th in the second from [[Nick Heidfeld]] despite his report that the car was "very difficult to drive". [[Robert Kubica]]'s car suffered a fuel leak resulting in him being unable to post a timed lap in the morning session. Kubica also told the press after the fuel leak, "the car has been quite difficult to drive." Both Red Bull drivers finished in the top ten of the morning practice. Honda was slower than its customer team Super Aguri in the first practice, but Barrichello was faster than [[Takuma Sato]] in the second practice. [[Toyota in Formula One|Toyota's]] suspension problems meant that their second practice was cut short, but not before [[Ralf Schumacher]] narrowly missed a [[groundhog]] that ran across the track. After experiencing problems with [[Jarno Trulli]]'s suspension, Toyota stopped both drivers for 45 minutes as a precautionary measure. By the time they got the cars back on the track, they only managed a few extra laps until the problem recurred. [[Heikki Kovalainen]] ended his practice day by going into the wall at turn seven, damaging the suspension. His teammate, Fisichella, performed better, staying in the top 8 in both sessions. At the end of the afternoon practice, [[Mark Webber (racing driver)|Mark Webber]] slowed down unexpectedly before turn eight causing Scott Speed to drive into the back of the Red Bull. Webber had overtaken Speed just before this incident.<ref name="friday practice 1">{{cite web|title=Friday practice 1 results |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/results/season/2007/775/6402|date=June 8, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930204536/http://www.formula1.com/results/season/2007/775/6402/|archive-date=September 30, 2007 }}</ref><ref name="friday practice 2">{{cite web|title=Friday practice 2 results |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/results/season/2007/775/6403/|date=June 8, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930204841/http://www.formula1.com/results/season/2007/775/6403/|archive-date=September 30, 2007 }}</ref><ref name="practice quotes">{{cite news|title=Friday practice – selected driver quotes |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/6/6241.html|date=June 8, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930200610/http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/6/6241.html|archive-date=September 30, 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Formula One diary: Hamilton, academically |publisher=telegraph |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/main.jhtml?xml=/motoring/columnists/simonarron/f1diary/files/mrsimon2.xml |date=July 8, 2007 |access-date=July 14, 2007 |location=London |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080915031729/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/main.jhtml?xml=%2Fmotoring%2Fcolumnists%2Fsimonarron%2Ff1diary%2Ffiles%2Fmrsimon2.xml |archive-date=September 15, 2008 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name="webber speed clash">{{cite news|title=Webber reprimanded over Speed clash |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/6/6245.html|date=June 9, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070705061622/http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/6/6245.html| archive-date=July 5, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref>

The Saturday morning practice session was 17 minutes shorter than the scheduled 60 minutes, due to Kovalainen's Renault having a suspected engine failure. The failure caused oil to be split on the track, this failure persisted during the race weekend.<ref name="saturday prac description">{{cite news|title=Hamilton tops disrupted session |publisher=Formula1.com|url=http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/6/6247.html|date=June 9, 2007|access-date=June 9, 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070701074221/http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2007/6/6247.html| archive-date=July 1, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref> This resulted in a [[Racing flags#Red flag|red flag]] period, from 10:33 am until 10:50 am local time.

Consistent with previous form, the Hondas of Barrichello and Button failed to make it into the top ten; they qualified 13th and 15th respectively. Takuma Sato once again outqualified the two Honda cars, just missing out on the top ten, in front of [[Vitantonio Liuzzi]]. He made it through to the second session of qualifying by 94 hundredths of a second, where he qualified in 14th. Scott Speed was the slowest car in the second session of qualifying putting him in 16th position.<ref name="qualifying results" />

[[Anthony Davidson]] missed out on the second session of qualifying, putting his Super Aguri in 17th position, 3 places behind his teammate Sato. Ralf Schumacher and his team were disappointed with qualifying in 18th. Heikki Kovalainen crashed into the wall at turn five, damaging his rear suspension and losing his rear wing, resulting in the session being stopped temporarily.<ref name="hamilton qualifies" /> Once the debris had been cleared, Kovalainen in his repaired car managed one impressive lap that put him in 13th, after which six drivers outqualified him.

[[Lewis Hamilton]] led from the start, preventing Fernando Alonso from overtaking at turn one. Alonso ran wide allowing Nick Heidfeld to overtake him and move into second place.

Alonso ran across the grass at turn one again on lap 15, which resulted in him falling further behind Hamilton. Three laps later he made a similar mistake at the same turn, resulting in him sliding across the grass for the third time in the race. This caused him to drop back to fourth as it allowed Massa to go round the inside of Alonso into third.<ref name="alonso weekend" /> Massa moved into second when Heidfeld made a pit stop on lap 20.

[[File:Circuit Monreal with two location circled.jpg|250px|thumb|left|Circuit Gilles Villeneuve showing the location of Sutil's (red) and Kubica's (blue) crashes.]]

The race was restarted on lap 26, and on the approach to the hairpin later in the lap Robert Kubica hit the back of Jarno Trulli's Toyota. The impact forced Kubica onto the grass at the edge of the track, where a bump launched his car into and along the concrete wall just before the hairpin. After losing three wheels, the nose and suffering major damage to the sidepods in the initial impact, the BMW flipped back across the track and came to rest against the barrier in the run-off area on the other side of the track. Although initial reports said that he had broken his leg, Kubica only suffered a sprained ankle and [[concussion]].<ref name="Unscathed Kubica out of hospital">{{cite news|title=Unscathed Kubica out of hospital|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/6739431.stm|publisher=BBC|date=June 10, 2007|access-date=July 2, 2007}}</ref> The safety car was deployed again after this crash.<ref name="Kubica escapes injury after crash">{{cite news|title=Kubica escapes injury after crash |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/6739431.stm|publisher=BBC|date=June 10, 2007|access-date=June 10, 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070618043657/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/6739431.stm| archive-date=June 18, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref> The safety car was also deployed on lap 50, due to debris from a crash involving Christijan Albers on the previous lap, and on lap 55 due to Vitantonio Liuzzi crashing into the wall of champions once again. On Lap 58, Jarno Trulli was trying to pass Wurz, but his front track rod clipped away causing him to crash. Cement was placed at the hairpin around Kubica's accident. Räikkönen ran wide after he misjudged the braking on the dust. The Super Aguri of Takuma Sato went past him as a result and moved into 10th place. On lap 37, Trulli and Nico Rosberg were battling for position going into turn one. Both span off the track in almost synchronized fashion without touching each other but were able to keep going. This occurrence amused reporters due to it resembling a form of dance. Anthony Davidson also made an unscheduled pit stop, claiming after the race that a [[beaver]] had damaged his front wing although Canadian reports said it more likely to have been a groundhog.<ref name="groundhog">{{cite news|title='Beaver' gets all the blame |url=http://www.canada.com/topics/travel/canada/AB/story.html?id=061eb1f5-2438-46a7-8474-2903cb9764e2 |publisher=canada.com |date=June 12, 2007 |access-date=July 14, 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160119202738/http://www.canada.com/topics/travel/canada/AB/story.html?id=061eb1f5-2438-46a7-8474-2903cb9764e2 |archive-date=January 19, 2016 |df=mdy }}</ref> One lap later David Coulthard was forced to retire due to a gearbox problem.<ref>{{cite news|title=F1 2007 Canada Race Report|url=http://www.bitsofnews.com/content/view/5753/42/|publisher=bitsofnews.com|date=June 10, 2007|access-date=July 13, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927021929/http://www.bitsofnews.com/content/view/5753/42/|archive-date=September 27, 2007|url-status=dead}}</ref> Ralf Schumacher also stopped on this lap and this allowed Massa, Fisichella and Sato to move ahead of both of them.

Including the two disqualifications, ten drivers failed to finish the race, six of them because of accidents including Kubica. Four of them gearbox failures. Several cars were damaged during the race: Wurz's rear wing was damaged in the incident that took out Speed, while Davidson hit a groundhog on the racetrack. This meant that the safety car had to be deployed on four occasions. At the final restart on lap sixty, all of the remaining twelve cars were on the same lap creating some close racing and a lot of overtaking. Hamilton sustained his consistent pace throughout all of the incidents and pulled clear of Heidfeld in the closing stages, taking his first race win relatively comfortably.<ref name="alonso mistakes" /> Barrichello dropped ten places on his final pit stop. Hamilton's championship lead was strengthened when Sato overtook the reigning world champion to move into sixth place around the outside of the final chicane, having switched to the harder tyres on his final stop.<ref name="alonso weekend" /><ref name="grand"/>

Austria's Alexander Wurz drove through the field in his Williams from 19th at the start to finish third by taking one pitstop, completing 40 laps on super soft tires. By finishing third, Wurz recorded his third and final career podium in the race that marked ten years since his debut race in F1. His podium remains the last scored by an Austrian driver. This was the first podium finish for Williams since the [[2005 European Grand Prix]], with Nick Heidfeld in second place after trailing Hamilton for the majority of the race. The safety car deployments also allowed Heikki Kovalainen to move up to fourth after starting at the back of the grid. The race was the first time in the 2007 season where a driver from a team other than Ferrari or McLaren made the podium.<ref name="alonso mistakes" />

Sato overtook the McLaren-[[Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains|Mercedes]] of world champion Fernando Alonso around the outside at the final corner on lap 68, just after overtaking Ralf Schumacher and having overtaken Ferrari's Kimi Räikkönen earlier in the race.<ref name="RaceFansReport" /><ref name="FIALapByLap">{{cite web |date=10 June 2007 |title=2007 Canadian Grand Prix – Race Facts – Lap-by-Lap Report |url=http://www.fia.com/mediacentre/Press_Information/F1/Press_Conferences/2007/Canada/race_facts.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070614195706/http://www.fia.com/mediacentre/Press_Information/F1/Press_Conferences/2007/Canada/race_facts.html |archive-date=14 June 2007 |access-date=10 August 2025 |publisher=Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile}}</ref> He finished sixth after having a race that had seen him move from the middle of the grid; to the back of the pack and to a high of fifth before a pit-stop error caused him to move back to eleventh; were moved up 5 places in the last 15 laps.

===Post-race===

Reaction to the race was mainly focused on Hamilton and the fact that it was his first Grand Prix victory, making him the first black driver to ever win a Formula One race. It was also thought impressive that it had taken only six races for him to win and, in the process, take the lead in the drivers' championship at the age of 22. Three-time world champion [[Niki Lauda]] said he was "stunned" by the victory and former world champion [[Damon Hill]] believed "People should not underestimate what he had achieved in a short space of time". Speculation began about the possibility of him winning the drivers championship.<ref>{{cite news|title=Hill applauds Hamilton's first win |url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/59686|publisher=autosport|date=June 10, 2007|access-date=July 13, 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070714084616/http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/59686| archive-date=July 14, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Sky's the limit for Hamilton|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/6739559.stm|publisher=BBC|date=June 10, 2007|access-date=July 13, 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070617223530/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/6739559.stm| archive-date=June 17, 2007 | url-status= live}}</ref>

Alonso and the Ferrari team were disappointed with the outcome of the race. Alonso was now eight points behind Hamilton in the drivers championship, as a result of finishing 7th. Ferrari lost ground in both the constructors and driver championship, after gaining a total of just four points from the race. Alonso believed Hamilton to have been "very lucky" to have won the race and did not congratulate his teammate after the race. Hamilton's performance was felt to have been faultless and all the more impressive due to four separate deployments of the Safety Car.<ref>{{cite news |title=Ten Conclusions From The Canadian GP |url=http://www.planet-f1.com/story/0,18954,3265_2199840,00.html |publisher=planet-f1.com |date=June 11, 2007 |access-date=July 13, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070714205125/http://www.planet-f1.com/story/0%2C18954%2C3265_2199840%2C00.html |archive-date=July 14, 2007 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref>

As a result of his crash Kubica was unable to race at the next Grand Prix in the [[2007 United States Grand Prix|United States]]. The decision to not allow him to race was made by the sport's governing body the [[Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile]] (FIA), as they believed it was a too much of a risk for him to race in case of another crash so soon after this one, despite Kubica stating that he was "ready to race". He was replaced by [[Sebastian Vettel]] for the next Grand Prix.<ref>{{cite news|title=Vettel to debut after Kubica ruled out |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-motor-racing-prix-kubica-idUSL1474955420070614 |publisher=Reuters |date=June 14, 2007 |access-date=2020-09-01 }}{{cbignore}}</ref>
