The Arrows team has been unable to produce a replacement T-car chassis
in time for Montreal, and will bring only two chassis. Taki Inoue's
chassis was written off after the pace car accident in the Monaco GP.

and the Aquatro rain pattern.

McLaren is using the Canadian Grand Prix to introduce the latest revision
of the MP4/10, now without the controversial mid-mounted wing and with a
conventional airbox. As at Monaco, Mark Blundell is driving the second
McLaren; Ron Dennis has said that he will announce his driver choice for
the remainder of the season after Montreal, though he is not known to have
contacted any other drivers.
Boullion confirmed for rest fo season
-------------------------------------
Sauber have confirmed Jean-Christophe Boullion as their second driver for
the remainder of the 1995 season. He will also continue as the Williams
test driver.
Pacific has new mirror design
-----------------------------
Bertrans Gachot's Pacific car has a new mirror design, intended to cut down
turbulence and drag, and improve the downforce.
Jordan to receive new Peugeot engines
-------------------------------------
Peugeot is to deliver a new evolution of its V10 engine to Jordan for
testing in late June, hopefully in time to make its race debut at the
French GP on 02 July.
