Hamilton happy to be home

Briton Lewis Hamilton is hoping home comforts serve him well as he looks to get his Formula One title bid back on track in the British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday.

The McLaren ace is under pressure after failing to score in Canada and France and will at least be hoping for a podium finish at his home track.

"To get the job done this year would be great," remarked a hopeful Hamilton. "There's a certain feeling you have at your home race, knowing the support from your home crowd is bigger than at any other track you go to, and that's when you feel home."
