Lewis Hamilton won the 2016 Canadian Grand Prix from Sebastian Vettel and Valtteri Bottas at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. After the race, during an interview with Hamilton on Sky F1, Vettel decided to join in and complain about losing time due to a pair of seagulls on the circuit at Turn 1.

After going through the race footage, Sky eventually found the clip. But the conversation, jokes and the actual fact he was telling the truth made for great TV viewing. Here’s a snap of the very subject of the Hamilton/Vettel interview:

It was pretty much the best bit of the Canadian Grand Prix, which was otherwise a fairly unexciting race…

Group B rally fans be like:

Love Vettel saying “I am a racing driver so I have to come up with some sort of excuse” :D

They were just looking for the local Timmies, Eh!

This is a great piece of journalism, having two “rivals”, for lack of a better word, chatting like chatting like best friends, making jokes and having a good time. Cant think of any other sport where this happens

Any action sport!

Was looking for this, wasn’t disappointed. You my man are going places for pointing stuff like this out. And yes u can look at football players they fight a lot sometimes not but most of the time. And these two fellas are just chatting after a race one of them didn’t win. It’s great I love it haha
