Hamilton delighted with German GP win

Lewis Hamilton hailed what he described as McLaren's "best weekend" this season following a superb German Grand Prix victory.

Hamilton went from cruise control to fighting like a tiger to take the chequered flag at Hockenheim following a horror smash involving Toyota's Timo Glock on lap 35 of the 67-lap race, which brought the safety car into play.

"I think it has been our best weekend up until now," said Hamilton, who was dominant in practice and qualifying. "The team have done a great job and we are really on top of our game right now, but we cannot get too far ahead of ourselves - we have got a lot of work to do for the rest of the season."

He added: "However, if we can continue with this momentum we're looking very good.

"Now it's on to the next race, with Hungary a very good one for us, so fingers crossed."
