Poll: Did Sebastian Vettel deserve his five-second penalty?
What's your verdict?
Sebastian Vettel had victory at the Canadian Grand Prix taken away from him by a five-second penalty for rejoining the track ahead of Lewis Hamilton, although the decision was met with opposition from fans and utter fury from Vettel himself.
Vettel parked his car away from the podium positions and later put the P2 sign in front of Hamilton's car.
Vettel said he was "robbed" of a win.
