Safety car concerns for Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton is on full alert for the safety car at tomorrow’s Canadian Grand Prix after snatching pole position in a dramatic qualifying session at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.

With a track deteriorating by the lap in some places during qualifying and with memories still fresh of an incident-packed maiden Formula One victory in Montreal 12 months ago, the McLaren driver revealed he was acutely aware of the role the safety car could play in the race as he bids to win the sixth grand prix of his career.
