It's TV gold as Sebastian Vettel ambushes Simon Lazenby’s interview on Sky F1 with race winner Lewis Hamilton at the Canadian GP

Revisit the moment Sebastian Vettel gatecrashed Lewis Hamilton's interview on Sky F1 - to complain about seagulls at the Canadian GP!

In what is surely one of the best off-track moments of the 2016 season, Vettel argued that he was distracted by the birds as he unsuccessfully tried to chase down the world champion in Montreal.

"He's not braking for animals," the Ferrari driver said. "You should give him a hard time because of that. Two seagulls at Turn One! I'm a racing driver, so I have to find some kind of excuse!

"I had my eyes into Turn One and then I see these two seagulls just sitting there, all relaxed. I had my eyes so deep into the apex, I locked up."

Hamilton's response? "You know I'm good with animals, right? I'm like Dr Dolittle, I told them to be there."
