Sebastian Vettel believed a podium finish was possible in Canada after losing a significant haul of points to Lewis Hamilton in the title race.

"When you are last after six laps anything is a gain, but we could have got on to the podium," Vettel said. "We lost too much time fighting through the Force India cars. I knew we could recover position because the car is quick, but you have to fight your way through the field which is a lot of work. It's not easy. The imagination going into the race was of course a different one. The pace was there and the car deserved to finish higher up," he added.
