Hamilton heads McLaren 1-2 in Canada

Five drivers retired from the Canadian Grand Prix:

• Timo Glock, Jarno Trulli and Bruno Senna all retired in the pits with mechanical problems.

• Pedro De La Rosa stopped out on track with what looks likely to be an engine failure.

• Kamui Kobayashi was the first casualty. He got launched on the kerb at the final chicane and bumped into the wall of champions. He retired at the side of the track just 300 metres later.

Stick with AUTOSPORT for news of all the stewards' investigations set to take place this afternoon.

It has been an extraordinary Canadian Grand Prix with an endless list of talking points for the coming hours.

The champagne sprays on the podium after a brilliant race on the Ile Notre Dame.

Alonso takes the third-place trophy after a solid result. However, the Spaniard may be upset about one or two incidents in that race.

Jenson Button takes his award for second place. The world champion drove a very good race, finishing 2.2 seconds behind his team-mate.

McLaren team manager, David Redding, accepts the constructors' prize for another one-two.

Lewis Hamilton picks up the winners trophy and he is now on top of the drivers standings after an impressive drive to victory this afternoon.

God Save The Queen rings out over the Montreal podium in honour of today's winners - Lewis Hamilton and McLaren.

Barrichello finished 14th with Massa eventually 15th, Kovalainen 16th, Petrov 17th after two drive-through penalties, Chandhok 18th and Di Grassi is the last classified finisher in 19th.

Hamilton steps out of the winning car and is clearly delighted as he heads to the podium.

Schumacher finishes 11th and scores no points as the young hungry drivers attack him yet again. Alguersuari was 12th with Hulkenberg 13th.

Hamilton is overjoyed with his second win of the season and he will be happy with the fighting style in which the win was achieved.

Buemi finishes in a fine eighth place but it was chaos behind him. Liuzzi held on to that ninth place and at the final chicane Sutil drilled Schumacher to take tenth place.

Kubica is seventh after losing out to Rosberg with that pitstop near the end. He's also sure to be unhappy about that earlier squabble with Schumacher leaving the pits.

Webber finishes fifth with his alternative strategy failing to pay off.

Alonso secures the final podium spot while Vettel takes a solid fourth for Red Bull but hasn't been a great strategy day for the team.

Liuzzi is through and past Schumacher at Turn 8 as Schumacher is forced wide.

Button cements another McLaren one-two and the Woking-based team top both championship tables.

Liuzzi is also fighting hard with Schumacher in a fight for ninth ... he sends a move up the inside but the German holds him off.

It has been another sensational afternoon with decisive overtaking moves once again making the difference in a hard-fought scrap at the top.

Lewis Hamilton wins the Canadian Grand Prix!

Lap 70: Hamilton goes on to start the final lap in Canada.

Lap 69: Nevertheless he's still attacking Alguersuari hard for 12th.

Lap 69: The Williams of Nico Hulkenberg is in trouble with gear ratios and he's hitting the limiter well before the end of the penultimate straight.

Lap 68: Now Liuzzi is catching Michael Schumacher as a battle for ninth develops.

Lap 67: Hamilton leads by 3.5s over Button in second. Alonso is third with Vettel fourth and Webber fifth with under three laps to go.

Lap 66: So that incident promotes Tonio Liuzzi into the points and tenth position. He is another who has had to fight hard from the back.

Lap 66: That's a great shame for Massa. He's driven hard all day from the back to try and get a point or two and when he gets there an incident with Schumacher knocks him down the field again - a wasted good drive.

Lap 65: Massa is now into the pits and the Ferrari mechanics change the wing. He rejoins, out of the points.

Lap 65: Massa quickly caught up to the back of Schumacher and made a move to pass. Schumacher held the position and Massa has damaged his front wing.

Lap 64: Robert Kubica has also been into the pits and Rosberg moved up to sixth. The Pole is now chasing down the Mercedes driver.

Lap 63: Hamilton is pushing on but is told to look after his tyres with the 3.4 second lead gap looking good for the McLaren man.

Lap 63: Alguersuari is now 13th and Hulkenberg rejoined in 14th position.

Lap 63: Robert Kubica stopped for fresh soft rubber in recent minutes and sets the fastest lap at a quick 1m17.606s.

Lap 62: Also, Liuzzi has overtaken his team-mate Sutil for 11th.

Lap 62: Nico Hulkenberg has been in for a stop. That releases Massa into tenth.
