Kubica's eyes F1 title after first win

After winning Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix Robert Kubica has said he will do the best he can to chase the F1 championship title. The BMW driver's worst finish this season was a fourth position in Turkey and Spain.

"If you are leading the world championship after seven races and, apart from Australia, your worst finish is fourth, well, you are going to use the opportunities," Kubica told Reuters in Montreal. "I hope the team will give me the maximum and I will give my maximum to fight for it," added the 23-year-old. "We have to work, fight and push but we certainly won't be lacking motivation.

"If you are the leader after seven races then you clearly have a car that can win races. If you have a top car then you are a top team," added the driver from Poland. "It was a great atmosphere and great to have so many Polish fans and others cheering for me. It was very special for me to win here, especially after last year."
