Formula 1 returns to Silverstone which is one of the most iconic venues on the calendar for the 2022 British GP.
Last year’s race at Silverstone was eventful to say the least. Title rivals Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen made contact on the opening lap, which resulted in the latter hitting the barriers and suffering a 51G impact.
Hamilton ended up winning the race, fending off Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc who finished P2. Hamilton’s then teammate Valtteri Bottas finished third.

Hamilton and Mercedes aren’t competing for race wins this season. The Title protagonists so far are from Red Bull and Ferrari, the two strongest teams of the 2022 campaign. A close battle between the two teams is expected once again.
Red Bull come into the British GP, winning six consecutive races. Verstappen has won five of them, which puts him at the top of the Championship with 175 points to his name. His teammate Sergio Perez is behind him in P2, followed by Leclerc in P3.
