One of sports most powerful qualities is its ability to inspire and that attribute is at the heart of a motorsport initiative which aims to help injured troops rebuild their lives and confidence. Team BRIT provides the platform for service personnel who have suffered from life-changing injuries and post-traumatic stress disorder to become heroes in a new environment - endurance racing.Team principal Dave Player, who served in the Royal Engineers for five years, tells Sky Sports: Its not a cure or anything like that, but its for guys who are thrill seekers - which most soldiers are - and allows them to push themselves to the limit. Living life on the edge. When you are fired upon, you dont run away, you run towards the bullets. Its a similar thing with racing - youve got to find that edge. This is what has given these guys a new lease of life. They have rediscovered their drive, their motivation, and something theyre really good at. TEAM BRIT at the Silverstone 24 Hours: (From left to right) Julian Thomas, founder of RaceLogic, David Pittard, racing driver and Team BRIT driver coach, M Born out of the KartForce charity which was created in 2010 to introduce injured service personnel to endurance kart racing, Team BRIT doesnt only provide the platform for discovering new skills in car racing, but also allows participants to gain skills which are transferable to the wider working world. The Team BRIT car leaving the pits in the Silverstone 24hr Its a normal limited company, like a normal racing team, said Player. The drivers have to work for their seat like any other racing driver. They dont race for free, they have to work.The whole idea is to teach the drivers, injured troops, all about the sponsorship and what companies expect from sponsorship. Its not were doing the London Marathon, will you sponsor me? It is corporate sponsorship and advertising. Its trying to work out what we can bring to each different company. We hold workshops and so the lads have to go out and contact companies and so far weve had a really good success rate. Whens the Hungarian GP on Sky?

Team BRITs VW Golf rose as high as second in class before a gearbox problem struck, taking two hours to fix. Nonetheless, a 10th-place finish still represented a commendable maiden result in the gruelling 24-hour race arena.Ex-soldiers Mark and Martyn have now gone out on their own to forge a path in motorsport.When we first met Martyn, hed been home-bound for seven months, said Player of the former Household Cavalry solider, who suffered severe burns when his vehicle was ambushed while on duty in Afghanistan in August 2006.He was so down and depressed, but as soon as he came to one race that was it - he attended every single one. He didnt want to be interviewed or photographed because of his burns, but now he gives interviews on TV, makes presentations at corporate events and gives talks at schools. Hes a massive inspiration.Mark was injured when he was 19, he didnt even have a driving licence. He only got his driving licence after he started karting with us and now, with no legs, last year he was the Brit Car driver of the year. Now hes got enough confidence to go off and make it in the world of motorsport. The Team BRIT car on the Silverstone grid And it was their uplifting story which caught the attention of one of the worlds most famous bands - Coldplay, who became a team sponsor.Chris Martin contacted us after reading about what we do, Player said. We all went and had lunch with them at their studios in London and the strange thing was, rather than the Coldplay fans asking them questions, it was the other way round! They were just enthralled and asking our guys all sorts of questions, we were like kids in a school.They know that Mark and Martyn have now moved on and they are really thrilled that they are part of something thats doing so much good for the lads.Team BRIT are moving ahead with three rookies - Mike Lewis, Warren McKinlay and Joe Byrne - as they work towards the eventual target of competing in the legendary Le Mans 24 Hours.We know its a really mammoth goal, but these lads need a goal, said Player. The new Team BRIT drivers: Mike Lewis, Joe Byrne and Warren McKinlay So when we start racing, we say what do you want to do? We need to have a path, something to aim for. Now we know that were starting team endurance racing with these three rookies and we know next year were going to do something else on the path for what theyre aiming for.After battling back from unimaginable challenges already on the front line, the inherent motivation and tenacity of the injured troops can certainly never be underestimated, whatever the arena.Find out more about Team BRIT and their latest racing activities here Also See: WATCH: The latest F1 videos When is the Hungarian GP on Sky?

GLENVIEW, Ill. -- After struggling with his putting much of the round, Tom Lehman made a 12-foot birdie putt on the final hole Sunday to win the Champions Tours Encompass Championship. The 55-year-old Lehman closed with a 2-under 70 at North Shore and had a 15-under 201 total for his eighth senior title and first since 2012. He rebounded from bogeys on Nos. 13 and 14 -- his only dropped strokes of the week -- with birdies on Nos. 15 and 16, parred the par-3 17th and won on the par-4 18th. "It wasnt my very best performance today, but it was good enough," Lehman said. Michael Allen and Kirk Triplett tied for second, a stroke back. Allen shot 67, and Triplett had a 68. Lehman, the 1996 British Open winner, opened with rounds of 65 and 66 to take a three-stroke lead into the final round. He ended a 27-event victory drought and won $270,000. "The check is sweet, but the trophy is sweeter," Lehman said. His last win was the Schwab Cup Championship at the end of the 2012 season. Lehman, who was bogey-free and made 13 birdies in the first two rounds, parred the first 11 holes before birdieing No. 12. "I had a rough start and wasnt putting like I did the first two days," Lehman said. "It put me in a bit of a bind. After 14, I told my caddie, Lets have the best fouur holes of the week.dddddddddddd." Lehman sank an 18-footer on the 15th and a 6-footer on the 16th to get back to 14 under. Triplett birdied the first, sixth, 13th and 16th holes in his bogey-free round. His approach on the final hole stopped in the back fringe. He missed a 20-foot birdie attempt. "I said early in the week that 15 under would win and 15 under wins," Triplett said. "I had some chances, missed a couple and made a couple. I had a pretty tough putt on 18 coming down that hill to keep it on line. So, next week." Allen birdied three of the last four holes, with his approach on 18 hitting the flagstick and stopping 4 inches from the cup. Doug Garwood was fourth at 13 under after a 66. He played the first 10 holes in 4 under and briefly grabbed a share of the lead at 13 under with an eagle on the 16th hole, but three-putted for bogey on the 17th to fall back. Russ Cochran took advantage of a swing adjustment to shooting the best round of the tournament, an 8-under 64 that left him in a tie for sixth at 10 under. "I got up on my toes more," Cochran said. "Seems like a little thing, but it seemed like it did the trick." Colin Montgomerie was 10 under after a 70. Hale Irwin matched his age with a 69 to tie for 39th at 3 under. ' ' '
