American racing driver Logan Sargeant will race for the first time in Canada at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve next weekend. Sargeant and Dave Robson (Head of Vehicle Performance) have been talking about the upcoming race in a Williams press release.

"This is Logan’s first visit to Montreal, and it is a circuit that is more technical than is initially apparent. His preparation in the simulator will be key to getting him up to speed and from there he will quickly understand the nuances of the track," Robson said.

At the Canadian Grand Prix, while team-mate Alexander Albon's car will receive updates, Sargeant's car will not receive any. Still, the American is looking forward to the race in his home country's neighbour.

"I’m excited to head to Canada for the first time. It’s a track I’ve wanted to drive since I was very young. It's a difficult circuit with the walls very close on the exits of high-speed chicanes. I'm hoping it suits our car a little better than Barcelona and we can have a good weekend," the 22-year-old driver said.
