Martin Whitmarsh paid tribute to the determination of both of his drivers after a troubled weekend for Mclaren. Lewis Hamilton battled to 13th with a one stop strategy, and claimed after the race that he had thoroughly enjoyed his outing.
Heikki Kovalainen finished in 14th place and later claimed that he was satisified in emerging victorious from his early race battle with Brawn’s Rubens Barrichello.
Lewis Hamilton – 13th: “It was quite an uneventful race but I actually enjoyed myself this afternoon. I was very heavy at the start but I just pushed and pushed. That’s why I can smile – because I think I drove to my full potential.

Xtreme Quad Racing is an AMAZING ATV/4-wheeler racing game for the iPhone and iPod Touch. With 5 differently themed tracks and 4 different ATVs, you will definitely feel entertained for hours with this 14.7MB game. Despite what all the reviews on iTunes say, I honestly LOVE this game.

Back to the main menu, you can choose …Â Details

Castroneves worked past Marco Andretti after that restart and was on the tail of his teammate when A.J. Foyt IV crashed 15 laps later.
When everybody went into the pits for the final time, Castroneves had a …Â Details
