MONTREAL (Reuters) - Lewis Hamilton held off his McLaren team mate Jenson Button to win Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix and jump to the top of the Formula One drivers' championship.
Ferrari's Fernando Alonso finished third to join the two McLaren drivers on the podium while Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel was fourth and Webber fifth after a thrilling 70-lap race.
While there were no major crashes the race, back on the program after being left off last year, lived up to its reputation as one of the most enthralling races on the Formula One calendar.
Five different drivers held the lead as teams were forced into a strategic battle to keep their tires from falling apart on the street circuit.
