Sebastian Vettel retook the lead of the championship with a dominant victory in Canada. His fifth grand slam win in F1 leaves him just one behind Alain Prost on the all-time list, with a victory he described as "perfect".
"Perfect is probably a good way to describe it. It's unbelievable. I said yesterday how much this place means to Ferrari and to have a race like we had today is unbelievable," he told Sky Sports' Paul di Resta.
"It's 50 for me but after a long stretch that Ferrari didn't win here, I saw the people around and they were super happy.
"There is still a long way to go (in the championship) so I'm not too bothered about it. It's a good side effect.
"Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, to have a Ferrari winning today and me personally makes me very proud and I'm honoured. It's a day to remember the great Gilles Villeneuve."
