Whilst he was at McLaren with Button, during one of the races in Canada, Button was just in front of Hamilton as they passed the pits. Hamilton then dived down the inside expecting Button to yield, but he didn't do so, with the result that Hamilton ended up on the grass verge, colliding with an advertising board that was placed on the grass.
I can't remember what happened after that, whether Hamilton continued or not, but something tells me that he had to go into the pits for damage.

HAM continued, Button got a penalty and Jenson still went onto win the best win of his career.
