The Formula 1 British GP takes place this weekend at the iconic Silverstone circuit. In this Sunday’s race, Max Verstappen (undisputed championship leader) started again from pole position and is leading the race. However, he lost the lead at the start to Lando Norris, although he regained it shortly after. Oscar Piastri, teammate of the Englishman, was third, until Hamilton, taking advantage of a safety car, stole the podium from him. He Security machine Alonso also benefited from it, who finished sixth at the expense of Carlos Sainz. With no news of a fuzzy Checo Pérez (out of Q3 again), McLaren have made a huge leap in performance at this circuit and are looking to end Red Bull’s hegemony this year (9 wins in 9 races).
