It’s the British Grand Prix, we’re at Silverstone, and it’s a very rainy day.
β’ Max Verstappen is on poleβ’ Everyone is holding their breath wondering if Ferrari can continue Lewis Hamilton’s Silverstone podium streak β’ Lando Norris really wants his first home race winβ’ Ollie Bearman put in his greatest qualifying performance so far this season by qualifying P8. However, he once again has a 10-place grid penalty after speeding during red flag conditions during practice (and nearly crashing in the pit lane as a result), so he will start P18. β’ In Red Bull news β The curse of the 2nd seat has unfortunately come for Yuki Tsunoda, as RacingBull’s Liam Lawson and Isack Hadjar now both have more points than him. Yuki has 10 points and is 17th in the drivers standings, while Liam is 15th with 12 points, and Isack is 11th with 21 points.
π Track infoβ’ Two DRS zones β’ Tyre compounds: C2 (hard) – C3 (medium) – C4 (soft)β’ One stop race is quite possible with good tyre management, two stops are also likely β’ Safety Car probability β 88%β’ Pit stop time loss β 19.9 seconds (includes 2.5s stop)
