Ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix weekend Lewis Hamilton reiterates that Monaco spat with teammate Nico Rosberg is sorted.

Following the pouting and petulance in the Principality it was obvious the issue was going to be referred to, despite the Briton's tweet that he and his German teammate remain friends.

Consequently, when the matter was raised this afternoon, Hamilton was quick to confirm that there is no bitterness between the Mercedes duo.

"There's not really much to say," he said, when initially asked about last week's tweet in which Hamilton claimed the pair had 'cleared the air'. "I said it in my message. We spoke after the race and just like friends we have our ups and down, we've known each other a long, long time, so it's done and dusted and we look forward to working together to try to help this team win the Constructors' Championship."

Asked if the situation in Monaco led to problems within the team, Hamilton said: "There was no difference. Collectively with the team... me and Nico spoke and we individually spoke to the team and saw the team. Nothing's really changed.

"We know the team has done a great job in terms of supporting us and the way it's run with Paddy and Toto," he continued. "Their support for the both of us has been great. We're now full steam ahead. We had dinner with the team yesterday and things have never been better. We're just going from strength to strength.

"People have ups and downs, as I said, so it's no different to any other experience me and Nico have had in our whole... God knows how many years we've been racing together. We move on, we're pushing forward. There's a long, long way to go in the season so we're looking forward to that battle."
