MONTREAL (AP) -- Lewis Hamilton has won the Canadian Grand Prix.

He is the seventh different winner in the first seven races of the season - an unprecedented display of parity on the Formula One circuit.

Romain Grosjean was second to the McLaren Mercedes and Sergio Perez was third Sunday, followed by Sebastian Vettel.

The safety car did not come out at all during the race at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal. This year marked the 30th anniversary of the crash that killed Villeneuve, the city's beloved Formula One driver.

There was no sign of disruption from student protesters who threatened to upstage the event because of tuition and fee increases.
