Ferrari's bid to overturn Sebastian Vettel's five-second penalty at the Canadian Grand Prix has been rejected by the FIA.

The German lost the victory in Montreal for re-entering the track in an unsafe manner after running wide at Turn 3 and pushing Lewis Hamilton against the wall on the exit of Turn 4.

After initially deciding not to appeal by the deadline of last Thursday, Ferrari instead opted to use their 'right to review' and presented their case to the same stewards at Paul Ricard on Friday.

However, after less than two hours of deliberation, the FIA decided there was not sufficient evidence to proceed with a review.

Ahead of the hearing, Ferrari sporting director Laurent Mekies had declared there was "overwhelming" proof to show Vettel had not committed an offence.

But the stewards ruled that "there are no significant and relevant new elements which were unavailable to the parties at the time of the competition concerned".

It has since emerged the case Ferrari put forward only included post-race analysis by Sky Sports pundit Karun Chandhok and the video from Vettel dash camera as new evidence.

This means Lewis Hamilton will keep the victory in Montreal and his championship lead remains at 29 points.
