Robert Kubica said his triumph at the 24 Hours of Le Mans on Sunday, 14 years after a near-fatal rally crash that partially severed his right forearm, should erase any doubts about his capacity to compete in motor racing.

Kubica's big break with Ferrari's Formula 1 team fell apart after a devastating injury. On Sunday, he was the reason Ferrari won Le Mans race overall.

Fernando Alonso labelled Sunday a "good day for motorsport" after former Formula 1 driver Robert Kubica won the Le Mans 24 Hours.
