Sebastian only managed fourth position.
Valterri Bottas, Lewis Hamilton's teammate came second giving Mercedes a 1-2 finnish at the podium.
Lewis who started the race on pole controlled the race from start to finish.
Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel who started the race just behind Lewis having come second in the qualifiers was unfortunate to have had his front wing damaged by Red Bull's Max Verstappen just right at the start.
Lewis went into Sunday's race in high spirit and highly motivated having been gifted his hero Ayrton Senna's helmet by his family when he won pole on Saturday.
Sunday's win was Lewis Hamilton's sixth win out of ten races at the Canadian Grand Prix.
On his win, Lewis said,
"I had my first win here and first pole. So to repeat it again 10 years later is incredibly special"
It was also refreshing to see Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo who came third on the podium.
The fans urged Daniel to drink champagne from his shoe a ritual he is known for which he did and the moderator of podium interviews also joined him to do same to the delight of the fans.
Congrats Lewis!!!
