Lewis Hamilton wins at Silverstone

Sunday, 6 July 2008

Lewis Hamilton has won the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

The McLaren driver started in fourth, but put in a fine display in spite of poor conditions to come in ahead of the BMW of Robert Kubica.

Rubens Barrichello was third in his Honda.

Hamilton's team-mate Heiki Kovallainen who started on pole could only manage sixth, behind world champion Kimi Raikonen.

Hamilton is now level on points with Raikonnen and Felipe Massa, who could only manage 13th in the drivers standings.
