FIA post-qualifying press conference – Canada

Drivers: 1. Lewis Hamilton (McLaren), 1m 15.105s; 2. Mark Webber (Red Bull), 1m 15.373s; 3. Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull), 1m 15.420s

Q: Lewis, you left it to the last gasp but you have got your first pole of the season and the Red Bull stranglehold of qualifying has been broken and you pushed your car home as a celebration.
Lewis Hamilton: Yes, it has been a great day and a great start to the weekend. It is just a bit overwhelming really for me. So many memories came back when they told me on the radio just now that I had pole position. It just reminded me of my first grand prix win here and my first pole position
