The 1997 Canadian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on 15 June 1997. The race was stopped early on lap 54 after a big crash involving Olivier Panis, who broke his legs and would be unable to start the next seven Grands Prix. Michael Schumacher won ahead of Jean Alesi in the Benetton and Giancarlo Fisichella in the Jordan. David Coulthard had been leading, but was delayed for over a lap by a clutch problem during his second pit stop, shortly before Panis's crash. On lap 2, local driver Jacques Villeneuve crashed into the wall on the exit of the final corner. This wall would later be known as the 'Wall of Champions', after three former World Champions, including Villeneuve, crashed into it separately in the 1999 race.

Cagliari Calcio had a successful return to Serie A, finishing in 12th place and reaching the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia. This was much thanks to a trio of attacking players consisting of Mauro Esposito, David Suazo and Gianfranco Zola, with Esposito scoring 16 league goals, a personal record.
Cagliari Calcio had a difficult season, where owner Massimo Cellino decided to fire three coaches during the course of the same season. Without retired Gianfranco Zola's influence of the offensive play, David Suazo took on a larger responsibility, answering with scoring 22 league goals, a career-high tally for the Honduran striker. That ensured Cagliari was kept eight points above Messina in the relegation zone. Following penalties for Juventus and Lazio in Calciopoli, the team was moved up from 16th to 14th place.
