Mont-Sainte-Anne hosts the sixth round of World Cup racing this weekend, the 28th consecutive year the historic Canadian venue has hosted a World Cup or world championship event.

There’s been updates to both tracks to get ready for MSA’s third turn hosting world championships, which return to Quebec in 2019. It will make Mont-Sainte-Anne the only venue to host world championships three times. With Tokyo 2020 Olympics the following year, MSA’s hosting duties will also put Canadian’s on home turf for an important stage of the Olympic qualifying process.

Live and On-Demand coverage of the World Cup series continues through Red Bull TV, which you can stream on your computer, mobile device through the RedBullTV mobile app or, if it connects to the internet, you can stream it on your TV.
