Hamilton targets finish as European GP goal

Lewis Hamilton's actions in recent weeks have not exactly made him one of the most popular drivers in Formula One. However, by securing third place in qualifying at Valencia, the British driver took the first step in consigning the past few weeks to history.

His goal for the race? To finish. "Valencia is a fresh start for me. I definitely want to complete the race. If I can defend my P3, then I'll be happy. Anything more is a bonus," Hamilton told Autoblog modestly.
