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

Ferrari has won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the third year running but a late surge from Porsche Penske Motorsport denied the Italian manufacturer a podium sweep.

Robert Kubica inspired Ferrari to a third consecutive victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans to secure the biggest win of his career since his Formula One breakthrough.
