Mark Webber ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚis confident the Red Bull RB8 will go well in Canada, a grand prix he regards as one o🧸f the top-five of the season.

Webber heads to Montreal off the back of a brilliant win in Monaco, a result that has propelled him right into t🐽he thick of the F1 2012 World Championship fight. Indeed he has now notched up the same amount of points as his team-mate, Sebastian Vettel, both on 73, and just 3 be𝄹hind current leader, Ferrari number one driver, Fernando Alonso.

"I would say Montreal is one of the top five grand's prix of the year because it's a sensational atmosphere. It's a really, really good venue and always provides an interesting grand prix there for whatever reason, and last year was no exception," said the Aussie in the countdown to the🥀 seventh round in the championship.

"It's a low downforc♈e track with long straights and high top speed, which is a different challenge.

"We'll see ෴ho♋w that unfolds, but we're very confident the car should work well round there. I love driving the circuit.

"It's a good one to get our teeth into, a l𒊎ittle bit like a street ci𒅌rcuit, so I'm looking forward to getting out there."

Vettel meanwhile is also a fan of the event and is simila🦄rly looking forward to g𒐪oing racing at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve: "Montreal is a great city, everyone loves to go there - the atmosphere is always great," he added. "The track is on an island in the St. Lawrence river, and is a great challenge for the drivers.

"Like the track in Albert Park in Australia, the roads are public, so tyre wear can be high. There's also a lot of wear on brakes, whi🀅ch can cause us a headache.

"Last year the race dragged on due to the heavy rain - but it's a very good pla💛ce to go racing."
