Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton is adamant he couldn't care less about the misfortune that robbed him of a second Monaco Formula 1 victory two weeks ago after touching down in style in Australia.

Hamilton won three of the six races this year, delighted fans by tweeting a picture of him arriving in Canada with considerable style.

The Brit posed for a picture as he stepped off his red private plane, Bonjour Montreal! Ready for#CanadianGP? My #Challenger605 #MegaJet was built here by the crew @Bombardier_jets.

The jet, which costs £10million, was built by Canadian company Bombardier Aerospace and the plane is a Canadian red – maybe some omens for the upcoming race.

What a toy to flaunt...

Hamilton seemed in a much better frame mind after his disappointment in Monaco last time out.

"I don't look back," said the world champion. "I'm looking forward. I've not thought about the last race for a long time.

"I've been thinking about this next race, been putting my mind to other things, training, and trying to come back strong for this weekend.

"I know there are a lot of questions about Monaco, but I really don't want to look back to Monaco.

"I've moved on. I don't even have to think about it. I couldn't care less about it.”

His fans were delighted with his choice of mode of transport:

The Canadian Grand holds good memories for Hamilton – it was where he took his first win back in 2007.

Hamilton is 10 points ahead of Nico Rosberg with Sebastian Vettel a further 18 points.

Good luck Lewis.
