00:00Lewis Hamilton's on the right-hand side of the track, Vettel to his left, then Alonso, Button and Liuzzi.
00:07Only one driver has won from pole this season, Lewis Hamilton aiming to change that and he's away first so far.
00:13Up towards that first corner, Hamilton, Vettel, little bump there almost for Alonso, Button still in fourth and coming through on the inside there is Liuzzi almost coming together there.
00:21There's Massa spinning around, there's been a collision, he's dropped well back, that's because of Liuzzi there and Massa still in front and Liuzzi's gone spinning and lost part of his rear wing it would seem.
00:29Liuzzi there caused a bit of a problem and he suffered as well, but Hamilton, Vettel and Alonso Butler through.
00:34I think Liuzzi got hit about three times by Massa, almost as if he was determined to have him off the racetrack for some reason.
00:43There was contact at the back as well, we saw two cars going over the grass and Vettel had to put a fairly solid move on Fernando Alonso to defend second position and it worked beautifully.
00:56So up now on the back straight.
00:58Webber's already P5.
01:00He's climbed ahead of Robert Kubica, Sutiel up to seventh, Michael Schumacher's up to eighth, Hulkenberg is ninth, Kobayashi's up to tenth already, extraordinary.
01:07Nico Rosberg's dropped down to 14th, Barrichello is 16th.
01:11We've got Petrov down in 21st.
01:13We have Massa and Liuzzi right at the back, the two of them, as we go round the hairpin.
01:17And that looks like, is that a, is it Kobayashi there being moved out, I think, by Hulkenberg, actually ninth and tenth, but still out in front.
01:25Let's see where Lewis Hamilton is with Sebastian Vettel.
01:27What's the gap?
01:28Through they come then to the first time through the final chicane, turn 13 and 14, from about 190 down to 80 miles an hour.
01:34Hulkenberg and Kobayashi still, and oh, Kobayashi's going to hit the wall there.
01:39That might well be a safety car.
01:41Now he's got it going again, but Hulkenberg was a very lucky man because he jumped the corner.
01:47He went across the no-man's land, would have had to have yielded, except Kobayashi went in the wall.
01:53Now, where's Mark Webber going to make a move here on Jenson Button?
01:56Coming down to off the hairpin then.
01:57Still, Jenson Button hugging in there.
02:00Now you can see, this is Massa.
02:03So his race has not gone how he wanted at all.
02:07So Liuzzi gets a fair enough start, but he's already got Massa coming inside him.
02:13So he gets into the side of Massa, spins him.
02:16So that's the first contact.
02:18Massa will now come back at us, and then another time to spin us off.
02:22Here's Mark Webber though alongside Jenson Button, coming through to turn three.
02:26And has the Australian got through?
02:27He has.
02:28Webber is through.
02:29So first decisive move made by the Red Bulls.
02:32Mark Webber, who should have started from the front row because of that gearbox problem.
02:36He was demoted to seventh, but he's now up into fourth place.
02:39The replay then, a good slingshot out of seven for Webber.
02:42Gets in the slipstream and then gets the high ground, basically.
02:46The inside line for the bumpy turn eight and nine chicane.
02:50And look at this.
02:51Vettel's having a look then at Lewis Hamilton coming up towards the final chicane.
02:54They've got to get this one right.
02:55Cannot afford to go through on that green stretch inside the chicane.
03:00But he's getting a bit of a toe along the pit straight.
03:02Is this going to be good news for Lewis Hamilton or Sebastian Vettel as they get towards this first corner?
03:06Can he hold it then?
03:07Hamilton does for the moment, but Vettel is right on his tail.
03:10Vettel must avoid just knocking his front wing off because he's going to pass him quickly enough.
03:16He needs to be careful not to have an unnecessary incident right now.
03:19Right now, Hamilton shouldn't move now.
03:21He's made his one move to defend.
03:23And he takes, I think that's okay.
03:25He takes up position into the corner because Vettel's not.
03:28Look how well this is working out for Mark Webber, not to mention Alonso.
03:31Maybe of Sebastian Vettel coming through.
03:33No, he's not, but Mark Webber is coming through on the inside of Fett.
03:35Oh, and coming to pitch is Lewis Hamilton and also Alonso.
03:38So now it's Red Bull one and two.
03:40Vettel leads from Mark Webber.
03:42Suddenly it's all changed.
03:43Mark Webber jumped the chicane.
03:45I don't think he'll be penalised for that.
03:47So it's now one, two for Red Bull.
03:49As Hamilton had to make his pit stop, there was no point in losing any more time
03:53because he needs this time now.
03:55Oh, he just had that up, Alonso.
03:57They're almost coming together.
04:00Oh, that's almost a repeat of 2008.
04:02They're wheel to wheel as they go out there towards the track.
04:04The former teammates and Alonso has just got ahead.
04:07So it hasn't worked out there for McLaren.
04:08I think back to the incident between Hamilton and Vettel in China
04:13when Vettel moved across almost to swap Hamilton back into place,
04:17but he wasn't giving way to Alonso as they make their way out now.
04:20I wonder there if Alonso actually touched the wall
04:22as Hülkenberg takes the front wing off to Williams with a clumsy move.
04:27Schumacher then rejoins and he's just coming out seemingly ahead there
04:32of one of the Renaults.
04:34And he's going to squeeze him all the way as Michael Schumacher...
04:36That's Robert Kubitsch.
04:39Oh, they're coming together almost.
04:40And Michael Schumacher's gone tread across the grass.
04:42He wasn't going to give way, was he?
04:44Never did.
04:45Kubitsch versus Schumacher.
04:46Yeah, Schumacher's just realised Kubitsch is there,
04:48so he sticks him on the grass for starters.
04:51And Michael will not yield around the outside.
04:54It's a wonder the pair of them didn't end up in the wall.
04:57And that was bordering on very naughty from Michael Schumacher
05:01because Kubitsch had the racing line, had the inside line there.
05:05And he'll probably get away with it
05:07as long as he hasn't ripped any straight off the under train.
05:09Now we've got Bohemi jousting for the lead with Fernando Alonso.
05:13Toro Rosso with Ferrari engines against Ferrari all the way through.
05:17And look at the way they've all closed up then.
05:18These are the front three.
05:19Bohemi, Alonso, Hamilton.
05:23Bohemi keeping it tight.
05:24He has the right-hand side.
05:25He knows he's got the right place then for the hairpin.
05:28You can slow it right down.
05:29And look at Hamilton going through.
05:30I'm just wondering whether he might do that
05:31and see if he can get through on the inside of Alonso.
05:33The way that Bohemi just backed up,
05:35Alonso played perfectly for Hamilton.
05:37Of course, just in the background too, chasing hard.
05:39That is Jenson Button.
05:40Yeah, Bohemi did the smart thing.
05:41He just parked it on the apex
05:42and then chose the moment that he would drive away.
05:45Confident that the two world champions on his tail
05:47were going to run into.
05:48Look at that Hamilton through there, Martin.
05:49He's come through.
05:50And Bohemi's in, so Hamilton's in the lead.
05:52Back in the lead.
05:53He judged that perfectly, did Lewis Hamilton.
05:56He harassed Alonso at the hairpin,
05:59chased him all the way down to that chicane,
06:00and he's through.
06:02So Bohemi's been in the lead,
06:03and now it's Hamilton.
06:04And a replay then of Hamilton going down the outside.
06:10It's Bohemi ahead of us who's going to go in the pit lane.
06:12Now that often can be so difficult,
06:14but you get sucked into the braking area
06:16if the driver in front of you doesn't brake effectively
06:19and goes sailing in the pit lane.
06:21You really have to concentrate hard
06:23not to go too deep into the corner.
06:25And Hamilton gets the job done then to lead the Grand Prix.
06:29What a boarding season this is going to be.
06:31The tyres are far too strong.
06:33Now, of course, when they're quite difficult
06:34for the drivers to cope with,
06:35everyone's saying,
06:36it's disgraceful we can't have this,
06:37but damned if they do, damned if they don't.
06:38Of Sutil on Robert Kubica,
06:40they're coming down the back straight
06:42with the Olympic rowing basin
06:43just on the left-hand side.
06:44Concrete walls obviously very much closer.
06:46Up towards the final corner.
06:48And what happens here then?
06:50Whoa.
06:50Kubica decides it's time for a pit stop.
06:53He looks like he's backed off.
06:55It looks like he's backed off.
06:56And then just decides,
06:58I'll go anyway while he's braking.
07:00That was thoroughly dangerous.
07:02I was wondering why Alonso's lost the lead there.
07:05He appeared to have a good pit stop
07:07and that's cost him the lead.
07:08And now we've got two Force Indies duelling here.
07:10Hello, we had,
07:11seems to fashion in Formula 1.
07:12Take on your teammate.
07:14And Sutil comes through.
07:15Radio.
07:17Rocky,
07:18do I have to pass button to win?
07:21Yes.
07:22The three cars in front are for position.
07:24The three cars in front are for position.
07:26That's interesting.
07:29Sebastian thinks he's kind of
07:30nearly got this one in the bag,
07:32but he's only running fifth.
07:34Weber.
07:34Oh,
07:34what is this?
07:35This is the,
07:36this is Liuzzi and Massa again
07:38on the outside of one,
07:39but this time
07:40they don't connect.
07:41At the moment,
07:42Weber's heading for fifth place.
07:44No,
07:44now it's important.
07:45This is for the lead.
07:46This is very much for position.
07:48Weber leading.
07:49Hamilton in second.
07:50Very close to the Champions Wall there
07:51on the right-hand side.
07:53Now on the pit straight.
07:53Hamilton sizes up.
07:55Is he going for the move?
07:56He's got the inside line at the moment
07:57in his first corner
07:58and he's taking it.
08:00Lewis Hamilton back in the lead.
08:01Passed Mark Weber
08:02who's just been going backwards
08:03and he's there at the mercy
08:05of Fernando Alonso.
08:06How long is it before
08:07he gets passed as well?
08:08Just the replay as we see.
08:10Hamilton on Weber.
08:11Very tidy.
08:14Very tidy.
08:17Pick up on Alonso.
08:20It's passing through.
08:22And that's on the inside.
08:23He's passed Alonso.
08:25What happened there then?
08:26We're going to pick it up.
08:27Alonso's tucked up behind the traffic.
08:29Gets poor exit.
08:30Got stuck then behind Chandok there
08:32and Button comes through.
08:33And it's a McLaren 1-2 now.
08:35Just as it was in Turkey.
08:37Hamilton leading.
08:38Jenson Button second.
08:39And Fernando Alonso
08:41is now in third.
08:42So.
08:43Schumacher's tyres have had it.
08:44Yeah.
08:45He's going to get caught, isn't he?
08:46How many moves has he made there?
08:48Schumacher off.
08:48My word alone.
08:49What's going on there
08:50with Felipe Masters?
08:51Surely that was another move
08:52by Michael Schumacher.
08:53That was a second move.
08:54Absolutely.
08:54Shoved him into the wall.
08:55And he's lost his front wing.
08:57Front wing's not going to
08:58survive that, I don't think.
09:00The worst weekend of the year
09:01for Schumacher.
09:05Well, we didn't see
09:06the first move there
09:07because he'd already gone to the right
09:08and then he came to the left.
09:09towards the rowing basin.
09:12Hasn't got quite close enough.
09:14So Luzzi backs off.
09:15Oh, Schumacher got that
09:16completely wrong there.
09:18And, uh...
09:21And let's...
09:22Now he's going to go
09:22across the grass.
09:23It could well be
09:24and set to be
09:25a McLaren 1-2.
09:28Round the final corner.
09:29Under the pit straight.
09:31The chequered flag
09:32is out in Montreal.
09:33Formula 1's back
09:34in North America
09:35and Lewis Hamilton
09:37wins again in Canada.
09:39Jenson Button
09:40makes it a 1-2
09:41for McLaren.
09:42What a perfect day.
09:45Alonso comes through
09:46in third.
09:46If McLaren can carry on
09:48like this,
09:49we could be seeing
09:49Lewis Hamilton
09:50and Jenson Button
09:52and Champagne

09:55for a few more races yet.
