The following year, Keke Rosberg made a remarkable charge through the field, but it was Nigel Mansell who ultimately won. The 1987 race was canceled due to a sponsorship dispute, leading to track modifications and the relocation of the starting line.

Ayrton Senna won the 1988 race, and in 1989, a late failure of his Honda engine handed victory to Belgian Thierry Boutsen. The 1990 race, held under rainy conditions, saw numerous accidents, with Senna emerging victorious again. The 1991 race featured a dramatic finale where Nigel Mansell’s car failed on the last lap, allowing Nelson Piquet to secure his final F1 victory.

Gerhard Berger won in 1992 after a collision between Mansell and Senna. Alain Prost won the 1993 event, while Michael Schumacher dominated the 1994 race, which saw significant safety changes in response to the Imola tragedies.

The Canadian Grand Prix gained prominence as the sole North American Grand Prix from 1993 to 2000 and again from 2008 to 2011. In 1996, Damon Hill won, and the 1997 race, marked by a severe crash involving Olivier Panis, saw a shift in his career trajectory. Michael Schumacher dominated the race from 1997 to 2004, except for victories by Mika Häkkinen in 1999 and the Schumacher brothers in 2001 and 2003.
