Moët & Chandon was founded by Claude Moët in 1743, the House passed down from generation to generation the values that characterized and which inspired Jean-Rémy Moët in his company to export the Moët worldwide. When Stéphane talks about Moët & Chandon, he transmits his real passion for this great global mark: "Moët & Chandon is an excellent ambassador of the art of French living and so to say, the art of partying in all languages of the world. We are happy to continue sponsoring Formula Peel and will be displaying our glamorous champagnes such as: Moët Brut Impérial, Moët Rose Impérial, Moët Ice Impérial and Nectar Impérial. Cordial greetings to the Latin American people and I invite them to come and live the event considered the technological showcase for the automotive industry", said Stéphane de Meurville.

This is our responsibility to create events so that after the circuit, they come and have a drink, return to the hotel and come back during the evening. We would like to do more than that, so that they feel we care about their presence in Montreal, to take them to places where they can go shopping where they will be respected. I must say it is the only event that brings luxury to the city, they fulfill the hotels and the economic falls are enormous, many millions of dollars."


At Ferreira Café clients will live the Grand Prix Fever, Mr. Ferreira announced with pride that they will bring European products such as: seafood, exotic fishes from Europe, creating a real European ambiance. "The majority of visitors are from Europe and we would like the people to feel Europe in Montreal. Montreal, being a francophone city, it is quite different from the United States of America. When they come to Ferreira Café, we want them to see the difference.  Un mensaje para todos mis amigos latinoamericanos, como mis amigos mexicanos, brasileros y dominicanos. Son gente que nos gusta encontrar y quienes invito vengan a visitarnos. En Ferreira Café se encontrará como en casa y les hablaremos español", añadió Ferreira.
