- Mercedes driver leads Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris
- Max Verstappen settles for fourth with Oscar Piastri fifth
Having battled through a morning huddled under ponchos braving sheets of rain, the doughty home fans at the British Grand Prix were treated to a qualifying session that will still be warming the cockles long into the evening after George Russell, Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris delivered an all-British top three for Sunday’s race at Silverstone.
Not only was this a remarkable reason to cheer for the fans, an embarrassment of riches from the homegrown drivers, but it was delivered with high drama and verve. A gripping session over an hour that perfectly encapsulated the British summer, veering from heavy, gunmetal grey clouds and rain to bright sunshine and a dry track by the close.
