There were only some details to sort out, after which Lewis Hamilon could - finally - sign a new contract with Mercedes. Possibly, team boss Toto Wolff revealed in the run-up to the Canadian Grand Prix - it was all settled even before the race in Montreal. With such comments and still waiting for some news, it is easy to predict what will be the topic of conversation in Canada.

Hamilton is also likely to spell out his expectations for the weekend: can Mercedes repeat Barcelona's performance at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve? Or was it a temporary upturn, and now a circuit awaits on which the updated car will harder times to perform?

In addition to Hamilton, Fernando Alonso and Sergio Perez also appear at the press conference. Max Verstappen and George Russell only have report to in the television pen for interviews. On Friday, it is then the turn of the teams' non-drivers for their media moment. Then, for example, James Allison (Mercedes) and Pierre Waché (Red Bull) will speak.
