00:00:00You know, it's just one race, one race in a series of races since 1950 in the World Championship.

00:00:07It's number 1137 to be exact, and it's round 12 of this 2025 season.

00:00:13But you know, some races are more special than others.

00:00:16And in this 75th anniversary year of the Formula One World Championship,

00:00:20let's take 52 laps around the track that kick-started it all on May the 13th in 1950.

00:00:27Best of British to the 20 drivers in today's Grand Prix, it is the British Grand Prix.

00:00:32And what a race could be in store for us today.

00:00:34Around the 18 corners here in Silverstone, 8 to the left and 10 to the right.

00:00:3977% full throttle for your lap distance, intermediate and weather tyres on standby.

00:00:44We could use the Inters at the start.

00:00:46And if it's dry enough after some early rain today, the soft is the C4, the medium, the C3 and the hard.

00:00:52Barely used so far this weekend is the C2.

00:00:55We have had torrential rain, but now blue skies above the campsites that are full

00:01:00and the grandstands that are absolutely packed.

00:01:03And a starting grid that features 19 cars because Franco Colopinto's had a brand new power unit

00:01:08fitted to his Alpine and he starts on the pit lane.

00:01:11Nico Hülkenberg then at the back in his Sauber,

00:01:13out-qualified by Gabriel Bortoleto for the sixth time this season.

00:01:17Oli Behrmann will start 18th.

00:01:18He had a 10-place grid drop for a red flag infringement.

00:01:21Lance Stroll out in Q1 for the eighth time this year alongside him.

00:01:24Then comes Gabriel Bortoleto and alongside him, Liam Lawson.

00:01:27They had career best finishes seven days ago.

00:01:30Esteban Ocon starts 14th for Haas.

00:01:32Alongside him, Alex Albon, a DNF for him in the last three Grand Prix.

00:01:36And then we go to Isaac Hadjar and Yuki Tsunoda in the Red Bull.

00:01:40It's his best ever start here at Silverstone.

00:01:43The top ten, Kimi Antonelli, a three-place grid penalty for his crash with Max Verstappen last week.

00:01:48And Carlos Sainz in ninth, his best start in five races.

00:01:51Pierre Gasly starts eighth for Alpine alongside Fernando Alonso,

00:01:55who starts where he's finished in the last two Grand Prix.

00:01:58Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton sharing row three for Ferrari.

00:02:02Hamilton out-qualifying Leclerc for the third time in four Grand Prix.

00:02:05And then it's George Russell on row two alongside his fellow Brit, Lando Norris,

00:02:09who started third here at Silverstone 12 months ago.

00:02:12Oscar Piastri on the front row, Max Verstappen with a fourth pole position of the season.

00:02:16It's the same front row that we had at Jeddah, and we know what happened at the start there.

00:02:21Martin Brundle alongside me for 52 laps of the British Grand Prix.

00:02:25Can't wait to get this one underway.

00:02:27And nor could I.

00:02:28And I'd be having a brilliant day until I read this.

00:02:31The formation lap will be started behind the safety car.

00:02:35Are you kidding? It looks like I'd be dry any minute now.

00:02:37What's the latest forecast?

00:02:40We're expecting around lap 15 to 17, potentially heavy rain cell.

00:02:46And then presumably the drivers will be forced into the pits to have the stabiliser wheels fitted.

00:02:51By the umbrella attached, yeah.

00:02:53There might be a bit of standing water around and about, but I'm somewhat surprised by that,

00:02:58because everybody's committed to intermediate tyres.

00:03:01It's too fast.

00:03:03The corners are too fast to, you know, just take a risk on a set of slicks when you can't get them up to temperature.

00:03:10You will have an almighty accident.

00:03:12Look at the sky.

00:03:13Look at the track.

00:03:14There's the intermediate tyres with the lighter grooves.

00:03:18Ted, what can you tell us down there in the pit lane?

00:03:21You're not the only one who's surprised.

00:03:22I can see a lot of team sporting managers talking to each other.

00:03:25Some raised eyebrows at that decision from the race director.

00:03:29Maybe he knows something we don't, that there's some standing water.

00:03:32But I don't think so, Martin.

00:03:33I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised to see anybody leaving the grid on a set of slicks,

00:03:38so much as the sun now drying the track quite quickly.

00:03:41Start this race 10 minutes later, and you'd definitely be thinking about starting on dry weather tyres,

00:03:47at least before that next band of rain comes.

00:03:49There is the gold trophy they're all competing for today.

00:03:51Won by 12 different British drivers.

00:03:53And a win for a British driver today would be the 25th win by a British driver here at Silverstone.

00:04:00Silverstone, as we count down then to this formation lap behind the safety car.

00:04:04Bert Myerlander being called into action.

00:04:06And yes, it does look a little bit damp in patches.

00:04:09But Martin, I have seen formation laps in way, way wetter conditions

00:04:13without the need for a safety car in previous Grand Prix.

00:04:18Which means, though, they'll take it maybe a little bit more cautiously than they normally would.

00:04:22Max Verstappen letting Bert Myerlander get well, well away.

00:04:26I don't know if he's obliged to keep within 10 car lengths or not,

00:04:31but he's very slow getting off the start there.

00:04:34Yeah, I don't know if he had a little gremlin getting away,

00:04:36but he's away now and he'll catch the safety car up.

00:04:38But they've been, since the heavy rain, they've been...

00:04:42I mean, if the drivers had a choice now, from what I've seen in the track so far,

00:04:47I think they wish they'd be on slick tyres.

00:04:49They'd be talking about slicks in no time at all.

00:04:53There's a dry line even around the outside.

00:04:56The track would be what we call green,

00:04:58because it had such a heavy wash overnight and again this morning,

00:05:01and cars running on it on wet tyres.

00:05:03So it's like they turn up on a Friday morning with a green racetrack.

00:05:07But I haven't even seen a puddle yet.

00:05:09No, this is about to dry.

00:05:10Let alone standing water.

00:05:11It's slick tyres.

00:05:12What are they doing?

00:05:13But if they're going to come in,

00:05:14and I think you're right,

00:05:15this is a standing start.

00:05:17We won't start behind the safety car.

00:05:19But if they're going to come in pretty swiftly,

00:05:21that might not be good news for McLaren,

00:05:24who have Oscar Piastri second and Lando Norris third.

00:05:27Ferrari have Lewis Hamilton fifth and Charles Leclerc sixth.

00:05:29They're going to have to double stack.

00:05:30And if everyone's coming in at the same time, that could be chaos.

00:05:33It could.

00:05:34And that's advantage for Stappen in that respect.

00:05:37And to an extent, Russell as well,

00:05:40given that Antonin is a little bit behind him.

00:05:44But yes, the second car has to wait for service.

00:05:47It's not allowed to stack the pack up behind.

00:05:51Otherwise, they'll take a penalty.

00:05:52You can't disadvantage your rivals

00:05:54just because you want to pit two cars at the same time.

00:05:58So, and there's only one pit crew, one pit station per team.

00:06:03George Russell has already been told by Marcus Dudley,

00:06:05his race engineer, get ready to box.

00:06:08Would you box at the end of the formation lap?

00:06:11It's a risky one because you're going to drop to the back.

00:06:13But if everyone's got to get off those intermediate tyres,

00:06:16that might be the right thing to do.

00:06:18Remember back to Hungary when Lewis Hamilton

00:06:20started all on its own on the front row

00:06:22as everyone else came in.

00:06:24And that was a restart there, wasn't it?

00:06:26So, let's see what they do.

00:06:28But there is absolutely no reason whatsoever

00:06:31that this is, it's fine.

00:06:34It's fine because it's effectively the formation lap, isn't it?

00:06:37They will now form up and we're back to square one

00:06:40because the safety car is getting out of the way quickly.

00:06:42So, no harm done and no problem.

00:06:45Just all formation.

00:06:49Surely, surely they're not going to leave the safety car out.

00:06:53It is, though, a bit wet at stone and into club.

00:06:57This is the final sector.

00:06:58The last few corners look a lot wetter

00:07:01than the other side of the track.

00:07:02And we have got cars coming in.

00:07:04George Russell is coming in.

00:07:06Charles Leclerc is coming in.

00:07:08Lewis Hamilton has stayed out.

00:07:10So, just two cars coming in to change tyres

00:07:13before we get underway here.

00:07:16And it's medium compound tyres that are going on.

00:07:19It's hard tyres for George Russell.

00:07:21So, already a split in the way that the teams are thinking

00:07:24is the best way to run this race.

00:07:26And you can run longer on those tyres, of course.

00:07:28So, we're going to have a thinned out grid.

00:07:31Yeah.

00:07:31And they'll struggle to get away.

00:07:32Then those in the pit lane.

00:07:35The last sector is just too wet for slicks.

00:07:37And that's the caution there.

00:07:39It's like races at Spa,

00:07:41where it's dry on one part of the track.

00:07:42It's wet on the other.

00:07:43Baermann and Bortoletto and Hadjar

00:07:45also coming into the pits, taking a gamble.

00:07:49And, yes, they're going to have to be so careful

00:07:51on their first two or three laps.

00:07:52But they save 20 seconds not making a pit stop.

00:07:56They mustn't lose more than 20 seconds.

00:07:57Fourth pole of the season for Max Verstappen.

00:08:00Piastri alongside him on the front row.

00:08:02It's lights out.

00:08:03And away we go.

00:08:04They're crawling away.

00:08:05And Piastri getting a decent start is already

00:08:07alongside Max Verstappen here.

00:08:09Going into turmoil.

00:08:10Verstappen ahead from Piastri.

00:08:12There comes Norris.

00:08:13There comes Lewis Hamilton.

00:08:14Going wide is Fernando Alonso.

00:08:16And he's still ahead there of Pierre Gasly.

00:08:19Verstappen into Ville.

00:08:20There goes the McLaren.

00:08:21Almost touches there.

00:08:22Piastri stays ahead of Norris.

00:08:24Hamilton there looking for a way past.

00:08:26Gasly on the inside trying to make headway too.

00:08:29Somehow they all manage to avoid each other.

00:08:31Verstappen finding tremendous traction now

00:08:33out of the loop onto the Wellington train.

00:08:35And going wide in this room and racing bulls.

00:08:37Going off and into the barriers there at high speed.

00:08:41And it wouldn't surprise me at all

00:08:43if that wasn't Liam Lawson who was back there

00:08:46with Isaac Hadja, his teammate, coming into the pits.

00:08:50He was on six.

00:08:50It could have actually been Hadja losing it.

00:08:53And it is Lawson right at the back.

00:08:55So we've got yellow flags waving there.

00:08:57Verstappen continues on his way to Cops.

00:08:59You can see the spray as they make their way right-handed.

00:09:02But Lawson is back on track.

00:09:03So we shouldn't need a safety car.

00:09:05Those yellow flags should go away

00:09:07unless there's debris out there.

00:09:09And they're immediately, of course,

00:09:10looking for wetter parts of the track.

00:09:13Ocon, has he been in contact with Lawson?

00:09:17Verstappen then leads from Oscar Piastri.

00:09:19Liam Lawson has stopped-ish.

00:09:22He's just crawling away to a safe place.

00:09:25Double yellow flags being wet.

00:09:26Here comes Lewis Hamilton into Stowe corner

00:09:29on Lando Norris.

00:09:30Hamilton's on the inside.

00:09:32Has he got the move done?

00:09:34No.

00:09:35Lando Norris fighting back there.

00:09:37And these two really scrapping away

00:09:39in treacherous conditions down at Stowe.

00:09:42It is very wet in the final sector.

00:09:44We'll keep an eye on the big wobble there

00:09:46from Lando Norris.

00:09:48But it held up Lewis Hamilton as well

00:09:50and put him on his back foot.

00:09:51So Norris then, in front of his beloved grandstand

00:09:55down there at Stowe, kept it on around the outside.

00:09:59How long before they want to come in for intermediaries?

00:10:02As I say, well, in the first, the middle sector alone,

00:10:06those on slicks are losing, are losing five seconds.

00:10:10Now, this is a tough decision.

00:10:11They're losing five seconds per sector at the moment,

00:10:15those on slicks.

00:10:16And that's because he's got a puncture,

00:10:17he's got floor damage.

00:10:19And that car, well, it's not anywhere near a service road there.

00:10:23So...

00:10:23This could be a full safety car, to be honest,

00:10:26because they're going to have to get that car recovered.

00:10:28It's virtual at the moment.

00:10:29Everyone slows down 40% of their racing speed.

00:10:33The race is neutralized.

00:10:34Lawson was hit by Esteban Ocon,

00:10:37which is why Ocon's got damage

00:10:38and why Lawson has pulled over to the right-hand side

00:10:40on the Wellington Strait.

00:10:42Now, the cost of a pit stop

00:10:43under these slower conditions is just nine seconds.

00:10:47Is it worth coming in now and putting the slicks on,

00:10:50or is it just too wet in those final few corners

00:10:53for slick racing tyres?

00:10:55Well, look, when Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris

00:10:57were going wheel to wheel,

00:10:58they were both struggling to get the traction

00:11:00that they wanted.

00:11:02And Norris just about staying ahead of Lewis Hamilton.

00:11:05If they'd have been on slick tyres,

00:11:06chances are they'd both have been skirting off

00:11:08into the Lando Norris grandstand.

00:11:10The Lando Stands, as they like to call them.

00:11:12Yeah, Matt took me on the radio saying

00:11:15under VSC, earliest time of arrival.

00:11:18Well, how come Piastri's so much closer to me?

00:11:21Right, here's Esteban Ocon,

00:11:23and that's Liam Lawson on the right-hand side.

00:11:26Oh!

00:11:28And that was only ever going to send

00:11:30the racing bull spinning towards the barriers.

00:11:32He's done well to avoid the barriers there, Martin,

00:11:34because he was being sent off there

00:11:36at quite a speed, even for such a slow corner.

00:11:39Look, he gets his foot down.

00:11:40Here he comes, bang.

00:11:41I didn't know he was there.

00:11:43No.

00:11:43I don't think Ocon did anything wrong.

00:11:44He did, but he just...

00:11:46Who the hell is that?

00:11:48I'm out.

00:11:50Who the hell is that?

00:11:52Whoever this horse was next to me,

00:11:53oh, dude, he just drove straight into the side of me.

00:11:56Now, Ocon had someone to his left-hand side as well,

00:12:00which might have exasperated the problem.

00:12:03I'm looking here at our screens.

00:12:05Franco Colopinto is showing us retired from this race

00:12:10for whatever reason.

00:12:12And I didn't even know that Franco Colopinto was in the race

00:12:16because we haven't really seen him.

00:12:17Slick tyres for Kimi Antonelli.

00:12:19Mercedes making use, then, of a cheaper stop,

00:12:22losing less time from your race time

00:12:24behind the virtual safety car.

00:12:26So, Colopinto came in and stalled and stuck in second gear

00:12:34and they retired the car, it seems.

00:12:36So, now you've got to try and second-guess

00:12:39how long the virtual safety car will be out for

00:12:41because when it's gone off, even just by himself,

00:12:47that's because they come out of the blankets at 70 degrees C.

00:12:50You want them at 100,

00:12:52but then you trundle down the pit lane.

00:12:54They're moving the racing bull now.

00:12:56So, if you want to make a pit stop,

00:12:58it needs to be this lap.

00:12:59I think the whole track is good for Slick,

00:13:02apart from the last two corners.

00:13:04That's about right.

00:13:05Antonelli has come out ahead of his teammate George Russell,

00:13:08who started fourth and Antonelli started tenth.

00:13:10That's how much time George Russell lost

00:13:12on the one bit of racing lap we've had.

00:13:14So, what happens then is you'll be out there

00:13:17going more and more slowly.

00:13:18You want to put those tyres on

00:13:20as late as you think you can get away with

00:13:22so that you can get out and fire them up.

00:13:25Here's the start.

00:13:26Yeah, and I thought Oscar Piastri had got a better start

00:13:28and I think his reaction time was better than Max Verstappen

00:13:31and look how he was gaining on Verstappen here

00:13:33and almost going wheel-to-wheel into that first turn,

00:13:36but Verstappen could take a faster speed at the wider line.

00:13:39Yeah, Piastri knew he'd be slamming across there.

00:13:41Piastri got a thing of his world championship,

00:13:44but he was on a much, much tighter line,

00:13:46isn't it? A different corner coming at it from that angle, basically.

00:13:49Lando in third really struggling for grip.

00:13:52We saw Lewis Hamilton coming at him

00:13:54on more than one occasion on that opening lap.

00:13:57It was Yuki Tsunoda, by the way,

00:13:59on the inside of Esteban Ocon

00:14:01that caused the chain reaction

00:14:02that has seen Liam Lawson go off and retire.

00:14:06This was Lewis Hamilton at part one against Lando Norris.

00:14:10No thing doing there.

00:14:11See how dry the line was.

00:14:13This now Esteban Ocon into the loop

00:14:15and round the Aintree.

00:14:17And they're all trying to hunt for that dry line

00:14:20and Tsunoda on the left,

00:14:21Lawson on the right,

00:14:22and Ocon stuck in the middle.

00:14:24Ocon had nowhere to go,

00:14:25but you know I was talking about

00:14:27the poor visibility in these cars,

00:14:29and I just don't think Lawson knew he was still there,

00:14:32but Ocon did nothing wrong there at all.

00:14:34He had nothing he could do.

00:14:36So Charles Leclerc is down in 15th,

00:14:37George Russell down in 14th,

00:14:39Isaac Hadja 16th,

00:14:40and Bortoletto 17th.

00:14:41They pitted before the race got underway.

00:14:45The virtual safety car is ending,

00:14:47and we can go racing again.

00:14:49And here we are,

00:14:50Verstappen and Piastri heading the field

00:14:52with some dark clouds overhead

00:14:53down that Wellington straight.

00:14:56Well, the inspector didn't turn laps.

00:14:58Right, so they're going to try

00:15:00and make these into,

00:15:01these into absolutely

00:15:03mullet on this racetrack.

00:15:07The high-speed corners on the...

00:15:10Oh, and out is Gabriel Bortoletto.

00:15:12We've got another retiree on the medium tyre.

00:15:15The slick gamble did not work

00:15:18for Bortoletto.

00:15:20That could be a full safety car,

00:15:22that one,

00:15:22because they're going to have to...

00:15:23Oh, no, he's got it underway.

00:15:24Well done.

00:15:25He didn't beat you.

00:15:27Oh, that's brilliant.

00:15:28That's really good news.

00:15:29He's at farm curve.

00:15:30Bortoletto has managed to get going again,

00:15:33so no need for a safety car there,

00:15:35and we can go green once more.

00:15:38Piastri hunting down Verstappen.

00:15:40Now, Verstappen is running a skinnier rear wing,

00:15:42which gives him a bit more straight-line speed

00:15:45than the McLaren,

00:15:46which should be better

00:15:47through some of the faster corners,

00:15:49making the job a bit more difficult

00:15:50for Piastri to try and overtake,

00:15:52and this is what happened to Bortoletto.

00:15:54He is almost tiptoeing around,

00:15:56afraid to get on the throttle,

00:15:57because that's what happens when you do.

00:15:59Oh, just a little tick in the throttle.

00:16:01He was being so cautious through there.

00:16:04He's got a lot of damage to his rear wing.

00:16:07Yeah, yeah, he's...

00:16:09Are you okay?

00:16:11Yeah, man, sorry.

00:16:12It's okay, no worries.

00:16:15He was ready to kill them.

00:16:17Now he's confetti of carbon fibre

00:16:20that's off the racing line,

00:16:23so I don't think there's any need to go and fetch that,

00:16:26but we're back racing again,

00:16:29but if there's heavy rain coming in 10 laps,

00:16:31will they just try and eke it out?

00:16:34I think they're going to need to, aren't they?

00:16:36Colopinto out then,

00:16:37and is this the last time we'll see

00:16:38Colopinto driving for Alpine for the time being?

00:16:41Rumours arrive that he could be being replaced

00:16:43by Valtteri Bottas or Jack Doohan once again at the next race,

00:16:46and there is Oscar Piastri

00:16:48really charging towards Max Verstappen.

00:16:50Max Verstappen's car sliding all over the place

00:16:53in the slower corners.

00:16:55We know he's got a bit skinnier wing on that,

00:16:56but Piastri, I think,

00:16:58has kept his tyres in better shape,

00:17:01and he must be getting ready for a look at the lead.

00:17:04We've got a yellow flag out there as well.

00:17:07We've got a lot of slow-moving cars.

00:17:09I think the yellow flag is for Bortoletto,

00:17:11who's still trying to make his way back to the pits

00:17:13and is being told to retire the car.

00:17:15We've got two races going on here.

00:17:17Those on the slick tyres really struggling,

00:17:19the five of them,

00:17:21and those on the intermediates struggling a little bit too.

00:17:23And these are our two out in front,

00:17:25hunting for a few damp patches down the Wellington Strait.

00:17:28Max looked like a rally driver coming out of Beckett's there.

00:17:32He's got no rear grip at all.

00:17:33These are the last few corners.

00:17:36Stowe is the one that's really, really treacherous at the moment,

00:17:39and then Intervail,

00:17:41and you definitely need the intermediates there,

00:17:43but for the rest of the lap,

00:17:44you're putting so much heat through these intermediates,

00:17:47they're surely not going to last that much longer.

00:17:50And it's hard to protect them in there.

00:17:52We've got another virtual safety car,

00:17:54presumably for Bortoletto then,

00:17:55stranded out on the track somewhere.

00:17:58Piastri's just done the fastest lap of the Grand Prix.

00:18:01And another car then,

00:18:03they can press the button,

00:18:04put it into neutral on the front of the chassis,

00:18:06and hopefully wheel that away.

00:18:08But you're not really allowed to drag a damaged car

00:18:12at snail's pace back to the pit,

00:18:15especially here.

00:18:15It's too dangerous.

00:18:16What a shame for Gabriel Bortoletto.

00:18:17His first British Grand Prix in Formula One is over.

00:18:21This is George Russell and Kimi Antonelli.

00:18:23I'm much quicker here.

00:18:24Swapping places.

00:18:25So invert positions.

00:18:26We'll invert positions.

00:18:27We will do it now.

00:18:29Team orders on that one to get George Russell past.

00:18:32But those on the slick tyres are so detached

00:18:35from the leading group and the leading pack here.

00:18:39That's the rally moment that you were talking about

00:18:41with Max Verstappen.

00:18:43Verstappen's going through Brooklands and Luffield.

00:18:46Russell's just coming up to Village.

00:18:47That's the big difference.

00:18:48So what they'll be,

00:18:49those on slicks will be hoping for a full safety car

00:18:52so that the pack goes like a crocodile

00:18:54behind the leader in the safety car.

00:18:57And they can make all of that deficit up.

00:18:59As you say, we've got two races going on.

00:19:02The second race is led by Russell and Antonelli at the moment.

00:19:06They're not really that far behind

00:19:07if the track continues to dry.

00:19:10They're looking handy.

00:19:12If they can keep it on the racetrack.

00:19:14And George Russell looked like he was keeping us

00:19:15on the racetrack just fine.

00:19:16Yeah, what's going to thwart them, though,

00:19:18is rain in ten minutes.

00:19:21Everyone's going to have to come in,

00:19:22whether they're on the intermediates

00:19:23or the dry tyres,

00:19:25depending on how heavy the rain is.

00:19:27We're on lap six of 52.

00:19:29We haven't actually had a huge amount of racing.

00:19:31We have had a lot of incident.

00:19:33Colopinto into the pits at the end of the formation lap.

00:19:38And he got stuck in second gear, car stalled.

00:19:41He's out of the race.

00:19:43Lawson out of the race after being hit by Ocon,

00:19:45who was trying to avoid Yuki Tsunoda.

00:19:47And Lawson went off towards the barriers at Aintree.

00:19:50And that was the end of him.

00:19:52He got going again but couldn't carry on in the race.

00:19:54And Bortoleto, another one to lose it at Farm Curve

00:19:58this time around in the damp conditions.

00:20:00And he's got sent off into the gravel and the barriers.

00:20:03Too much damage on his car.

00:20:04Verstappen has led from the start.

00:20:07But we haven't had a huge amount of racing.

00:20:09But staying on the track at times has been very difficult,

00:20:12whether we're racing or under the virtual safety car.

00:20:14Piastri is second.

00:20:15Norris is third.

00:20:17Light rain around six laps.

00:20:18And then four laps after that,

00:20:20there'll be heavier rain.

00:20:22You know, the trouble is,

00:20:23when your intermediates absolutely had it,

00:20:27heavy rain, they're no good.

00:20:29You just, they won't clear the water.

00:20:32And you're better with fresh intermediates.

00:20:34But they're still going with some soft tyres

00:20:36on the Aston Martin.

00:20:39Of Lance Stroll, which is an unusual choice.

00:20:42Well, especially after it was an Aston Martin message

00:20:44we just heard.

00:20:46But...

00:20:46Well, maybe that's just a case of

00:20:48you're going to have to pit anyway, Lance.

00:20:49We might get a few laps in.

00:20:51So, actually, you're going to be faster

00:20:54on those slick tyres

00:20:55in the two or three laps

00:20:56that we could get in of racing

00:20:58before the heavy rain comes

00:20:59than you would be staying on the intermediates.

00:21:01Yeah, and Lance is very good in these conditions.

00:21:03We've seen him go extremely well, haven't we?

00:21:05Correct.

00:21:05But, just to remind you,

00:21:08especially if you're new to Formula 1,

00:21:09while the cars are being controlled on their speed,

00:21:12you obviously lose a lot less time

00:21:15when you make a pit stop.

00:21:16It's nine seconds instead of 20 seconds.

00:21:19Sort of conditions Kevin Magnussen would have loved,

00:21:21I'm sure.

00:21:21Great to see him back at a Grand Prix.

00:21:23And guess what?

00:21:24Great to see the virtual safety car ending as well.

00:21:27We've lost Colopinto,

00:21:27we've lost Lawson and Bortoletto,

00:21:30their career-best finishes this time last week.

00:21:32They're out on the first lap of a Grand Prix this weekend.

00:21:37Verstappen leads Piastri,

00:21:38leads Norris and Hamilton and Gasly

00:21:40running in the top five.

00:21:41Then Alonso, Sainz, Albon, Tsunoda

00:21:43and Hülkenberg completing the top ten.

00:21:45Watch for Lance Stroll on those slick tyres.

00:21:47We'll see how the track's improving.

00:21:49Watch for Oscar Piastri,

00:21:50who's gaining here on Max Verstappen,

00:21:52even without DRS.

00:21:54Into Stowe we go.

00:21:55Just a few car lengths between them.

00:21:57Max then using a very wide go-kart line

00:21:59that worked very well through there.

00:22:01No DRS when they perceive it slippery

00:22:03or lacking in visibility.

00:22:06They could switch it on anytime now,

00:22:08I would have thought.

00:22:09So otherwise I think Piastri would have been through there

00:22:12with the help of his rear wing open.

00:22:14But Max actually had a lovely line around the outside,

00:22:17sort of a wall of death around the outside of Stowe.

00:22:19I said watch Lance Stroll.

00:22:21In the middle sector,

00:22:22he was about ten seconds faster

00:22:24than Alex Albon, who's just ahead of him.

00:22:27And Albon is on the intermediate tyres.

00:22:30Normal grip conditions, we're being told,

00:22:32by race control.

00:22:33That could be a masterstroke there by Aston Martin

00:22:35to get their driver on a set of softs

00:22:37before the rain comes back in.

00:22:38And it's coming straight towards our commentary box

00:22:40and we can see blue skies.

00:22:42But before that, dark clouds.

00:22:44Here with DRS.

00:22:45Yeah, comes Oscar Piastri.

00:22:46Down towards Brooklyn.

00:22:47He's been forced around the outside by Verstappen.

00:22:50And now it might switch around a little bit

00:22:52as we go into Luffield.

00:22:54Jenson Barth described this

00:22:55as the worst corner in Formula 1

00:22:57because it's so frustrating for the drivers.

00:22:59But if you get a really good exit

00:23:01out of there and into Woodcut,

00:23:03Copse is waiting for you.

00:23:04And you can get past on the inside round at Copse.

00:23:08Which way is Verstappen going to go?

00:23:09He covers off Piastri nicely.

00:23:11He's wide.

00:23:12He is wide.

00:23:13And now, with that extra downforce

00:23:15from the rear wing,

00:23:16the McLaren should have an advantage.

00:23:17Verstappen just cuts him off

00:23:19going through Maggots.

00:23:20Now and to Becketts.

00:23:21This is brilliant racing

00:23:22between Verstappen and the championship leader,

00:23:25Oscar Piastri,

00:23:26who loses a bit of time

00:23:27sliding a little bit wide

00:23:28through Chappell.

00:23:29But he's right on Verstappen's tail now

00:23:31as we go down the Hangar Strait.

00:23:33And he's wheel to wheel

00:23:34down the Hangar Strait.

00:23:35And by the time they get into Stowe,

00:23:37Oscar Piastri

00:23:38leads the British Grand Prix.

00:23:40He gave him a little squeeze at the end,

00:23:42left him enough racing space, though.

00:23:44Lovely clean move

00:23:45from Oscar Piastri.

00:23:47And he now,

00:23:48with some fresh air ahead of him,

00:23:49could just settle down

00:23:50and see if he can eat

00:23:51a few more laps

00:23:52out of those tyres.

00:23:54And now George Russell saying

00:23:55it's raining.

00:23:57A few teams were forecasting that.

00:23:59Have these drivers

00:23:59got enough grip

00:24:00on the intermediates

00:24:01if it rains heavily?

00:24:03Can they still clear the water?

00:24:05It doesn't stop them coming in.

00:24:06Put another set of inters on,

00:24:08though, does it?

00:24:08George Russell saying

00:24:09it's raining.

00:24:10Brilliant.

00:24:10I think very much

00:24:11with tongue-in-cheek

00:24:12and sarcasm

00:24:13being the order of the day.

00:24:14Lando Norris

00:24:15getting detached now

00:24:16from Verstappen.

00:24:18But on the last lap

00:24:19was a second faster.

00:24:21Lewis Hamilton

00:24:21and there's his teammates

00:24:24Charles Leclerc

00:24:24and Kimi Antonelli

00:24:25going through the veil chicane.

00:24:27And Leclerc

00:24:28ahead.

00:24:29Can Antonelli

00:24:29fight this one back?

00:24:31Yes, he can.

00:24:3214th and 15th

00:24:33these two at the moment.

00:24:34Leclerc's been struggling

00:24:35on the slick tyres.

00:24:36He's been six seconds

00:24:37a lap slow.

00:24:38He just cannot get them

00:24:39fired up in that Ferrari.

00:24:41We know the Mercedes

00:24:42is very good at heating

00:24:43its tyres up.

00:24:44It sometimes hurts it

00:24:45for that reason.

00:24:46Fastest man on the tracks,

00:24:47George Russell.

00:24:48He's down in 13th place

00:24:49and already Oscar Piastri

00:24:51is two seconds clear

00:24:52of Max Verstappen.

00:24:53He's only been ahead of him

00:24:54for just less than a lap.

00:24:56which means Verstappen

00:24:57is out of the DRS range

00:24:58then, the drag reduction

00:24:59system range

00:25:00so he doesn't get

00:25:01that service.

00:25:02In about three laps

00:25:03he's going to be under threat

00:25:04from Lando Norris

00:25:05on board with Charles Leclerc.

00:25:06Down towards Brooklyn

00:25:07as we go.

00:25:08He's looking for a move

00:25:09round the outside

00:25:10and Antonelli

00:25:11places his Mercedes

00:25:12in just the right part

00:25:14of the track.

00:25:15Now he goes wider

00:25:16and now Leclerc

00:25:17seizes an opening.

00:25:18That quickly gets shut

00:25:19and onwards towards

00:25:20Cobbs we go.

00:25:21Yeah, you sense

00:25:22he's starting to get

00:25:23some grip from those

00:25:24yellow marked

00:25:25intermediate tyres

00:25:26is Charles Leclerc.

00:25:27Oh, there was nearly

00:25:28an opening there.

00:25:29Very close.

00:25:30And, yeah, let's see

00:25:32how he is in the final

00:25:33set of lap

00:25:34that's much wetter

00:25:35because, yeah,

00:25:36Mercedes overheat

00:25:37their tyres normally

00:25:38on a hot day.

00:25:39On a cold day

00:25:40or like we saw

00:25:41a cold night

00:25:41in Las Vegas

00:25:42they adjust the ticket.

00:25:44Lance Stroll

00:25:45is right on the back

00:25:46of Yuki Tsunoda.

00:25:47Behind him

00:25:48George Russell

00:25:48is absolutely flying.

00:25:50He's 26 seconds

00:25:51behind the lead

00:25:51as here comes

00:25:52Charles Leclerc

00:25:53getting past

00:25:55Kimi Antonelli.

00:25:56Russell's 26 seconds

00:25:57off the lead

00:25:58but he is lapping

00:25:59at the moment

00:26:00three seconds

00:26:00a lap quicker

00:26:01than Oscar Piastri

00:26:02and diving into the pit

00:26:03comes Kimi Antonelli.

00:26:05Lance Stroll

00:26:06powers his way

00:26:07down the Lewis Hamilton

00:26:08straight.

00:26:09He's in 10th

00:26:10as Hulkenberg

00:26:10now pits as well

00:26:11but what tyres

00:26:13do you put on

00:26:14with the threat

00:26:15of rain coming?

00:26:15You don't know

00:26:16where to look next

00:26:17in this race.

00:26:17It's just kicking off

00:26:18all over the place

00:26:20isn't it?

00:26:20Let's see what

00:26:21they're going to put

00:26:21on it.

00:26:23They're gambling

00:26:23that it is about

00:26:24to start

00:26:25it will rain

00:26:26so they've gone

00:26:27with a forecast

00:26:28for that

00:26:28because it doesn't

00:26:30make sense

00:26:31for that tyre

00:26:32right now

00:26:33from what I'm

00:26:33looking at

00:26:34that's a decision

00:26:35based on what

00:26:36they think is going

00:26:37to happen

00:26:37very shortly.

00:26:38Let's head down

00:26:39to Ted Kravitz

00:26:40in the pit lane

00:26:40it's a pretty good

00:26:41decision

00:26:41all right

00:26:42the first one

00:26:42didn't work out

00:26:43for Mercedes

00:26:43but that is a good

00:26:45decision

00:26:45because the rain

00:26:46is about to come

00:26:47are they pitting

00:26:48George?

00:26:48Not yet

00:26:49but yeah

00:26:50it was a good idea

00:26:51well it seemed

00:26:52at the time

00:26:53but yeah

00:26:54hasn't paid off

00:26:54for Mercedes

00:26:55apparently it's

00:26:55chucking it down

00:26:56at the Aston Martin

00:26:57factory

00:26:58which is half a mile

00:26:59from Silverstone

00:27:00Lance Stroll

00:27:00gets past Alex

00:27:01Albon

00:27:01and thank you

00:27:02Rachel Brooks

00:27:02for the weather

00:27:03forecast

00:27:03Anthony to you

00:27:04on our sky pit wall

00:27:06yeah Kofti

00:27:07just watching

00:27:08on board

00:27:09with George Russell

00:27:09he's particularly

00:27:10struggling in the

00:27:11final sector still

00:27:12and things are

00:27:12about to get worse

00:27:13look it's really

00:27:14such a hit hard

00:27:15we need to watch

00:27:16really bad interest

00:27:17yeah so that's

00:27:20where Max Verstappen

00:27:21is heading into

00:27:21right now

00:27:22that final sector

00:27:22that's where

00:27:23Russell is finding

00:27:24it the hardest

00:27:24and like I say

00:27:25it's about to get

00:27:26worse

00:27:27his strongest sector

00:27:28sector 2

00:27:29but even that's

00:27:30about to disappear

00:27:31where I'm sitting

00:27:31here Kofti

00:27:32things are starting

00:27:33to get more

00:27:34than damp

00:27:35get out your

00:27:35brolly

00:27:36Anthony Davidson

00:27:37look in your

00:27:37mirrors

00:27:38Max Verstappen

00:27:38here comes

00:27:39Lando Norris

00:27:40so that's what

00:27:41I was talking

00:27:41about earlier on

00:27:42with the surface

00:27:44of the intermediate

00:27:44type

00:27:45it sort of smears

00:27:46the rubber about

00:27:47there's Lance Stroll

00:27:48pits again

00:27:49and George Russell

00:27:49and Charles Leclerc

00:27:51those that were

00:27:51on the dry tyres

00:27:52are coming in

00:27:53but they've made up

00:27:54a huge amount

00:27:54and now

00:27:55there's the rain

00:27:56that's where

00:27:57he's chucking it down

00:27:58that's our race leader

00:27:59Oscar Piastri

00:28:00just going past

00:28:01the BRDC clubhouse

00:28:02at Brooklyn's

00:28:03with Max Verstappen

00:28:04on really bad

00:28:05intermediate tyres

00:28:06he says

00:28:06now with Lando Norris

00:28:08right behind him

00:28:09has Norris

00:28:09got better grip

00:28:10on his inters

00:28:11we'll find out

00:28:12so saying

00:28:12you smear the surface

00:28:14and then you can't

00:28:15clear water

00:28:15then

00:28:15you need good

00:28:17sharp edges

00:28:18on the tread blocks

00:28:19to clear any

00:28:20standing water

00:28:21or can they just

00:28:22hold on

00:28:23and go through

00:28:23this phase

00:28:24and get away

00:28:25with it

00:28:26so those that

00:28:26gambled on slicks

00:28:27it didn't really work

00:28:29if McLaren

00:28:31need to double stack

00:28:32they've probably

00:28:32got enough distance

00:28:33between Piastri

00:28:34and Norris

00:28:34to make that work

00:28:35but Norris

00:28:36might be a bit closer

00:28:37by the time

00:28:38they come in

00:28:38box box

00:28:39they say to Piastri

00:28:40go for it

00:28:41they say to Norris

00:28:42and he just

00:28:43misses out

00:28:44getting past Max Verstappen

00:28:45to make it a McLaren

00:28:461-2 in this race

00:28:47oh Verstappen's gone wide

00:28:49at Chappell

00:28:50and that lets

00:28:51Lando Norris through

00:28:52he said he had

00:28:53really bad

00:28:54intermediate tyres

00:28:55he's gone and proved it there

00:28:56Max Verstappen

00:28:57and Lando Norris

00:28:58by the time he gets

00:28:59to his own grandstand

00:29:00now runs in P2

00:29:01and of course

00:29:02as the tread goes down

00:29:03you lose temperature

00:29:04because the rubber

00:29:05twisting around on itself

00:29:07on a thicker tread

00:29:08and so does Norris

00:29:10come in the pits

00:29:10as well

00:29:10so does Verstappen

00:29:12so you start losing temperature

00:29:14the slower you go

00:29:15the more temperature

00:29:16you lose

00:29:16now we've got the top three

00:29:18all in the pit lane

00:29:19all for fresh intermediates

00:29:21and this is pressure

00:29:22for the pit crews

00:29:23as well

00:29:24the service

00:29:24Oscar Piastri

00:29:25in 3.1 seconds

00:29:27on go the intermediate tyres

00:29:28for Lando Norris

00:29:29that is very costly

00:29:31front left

00:29:32just took a little bit longer

00:29:33he's lost two seconds

00:29:34in the pit

00:29:35Max Verstappen

00:29:36now gets back ahead

00:29:37of Lando Norris

00:29:38while spotted Martin

00:29:39because he was stationary

00:29:41for three seconds less

00:29:42yeah that's cost him a position

00:29:45he's got to do that

00:29:46all again now

00:29:47but Max

00:29:48doesn't have

00:29:49a tyre disadvantage

00:29:50they'll come out

00:29:51into some traffic

00:29:52but it won't take them long

00:29:53in fact Piastri

00:29:54he's got a beautifully

00:29:56clear track ahead of him

00:29:57yeah and look at that

00:29:58Alex Albon for Williams

00:30:00who hasn't stopped

00:30:01in this race yet

00:30:02now runs

00:30:03in seconds

00:30:04he got a huge amount

00:30:06of track position

00:30:07just by staying out

00:30:09but he's under pressure here

00:30:10so down the hangar

00:30:12Wellington straight we go

00:30:14Verstappen

00:30:14trying to put some pressure

00:30:16on Alex Albon

00:30:17a lot of pressure

00:30:18on that Williams team

00:30:19after three DNFs in a row

00:30:21for Alex Albon recently

00:30:23and just one point scored

00:30:24by Williams

00:30:25in the last three races

00:30:27he's gone wide

00:30:28he hasn't got the grip

00:30:29that Verstappen has

00:30:29and Verstappen is through

00:30:31now there's Lando Norris

00:30:33behind Alex Albon

00:30:34to try and get himself

00:30:35back up

00:30:35into the top three

00:30:37and look how the conditions

00:30:38have changed

00:30:38in the space of about

00:30:40three minutes

00:30:40it's gone from bright sunshine

00:30:42and a gorgeous sunny day

00:30:43to absolute torrential rain

00:30:46over on the far side

00:30:47of the track

00:30:47it cost Verstappen

00:30:48a bit of time

00:30:49getting past Albon

00:30:49this is for position

00:30:50they don't get the help

00:30:51of blue flags of course

00:30:52but now it's costing

00:30:54Norris as well

00:30:55box box

00:30:56they say to Alex Albon

00:30:58he might have wanted

00:30:59to come in a bit earlier

00:31:00it goes wide

00:31:01Lando Norris goes through

00:31:03Piastri leads

00:31:04by 10 seconds

00:31:05from Verstappen

00:31:06and then Norris

00:31:07who's lost time now

00:31:08to Max Verstappen

00:31:09on track

00:31:10and in the pit lane

00:31:12still gets the cheers

00:31:14we expect at least

00:31:1510 minutes of rain

00:31:16and there's still

00:31:17a lot of things

00:31:19that could happen

00:31:20in this race

00:31:20Albon fourth

00:31:21by the way

00:31:22Lance Stroll

00:31:23is up into fifth

00:31:24Aston Martin

00:31:25put him on the slicks

00:31:26at just the right time

00:31:27they got him off the slicks

00:31:28at just the right time

00:31:29he's gained

00:31:30huge amount of track position

00:31:32started 17th

00:31:33in this race

00:31:34and this

00:31:34was the McLaren pit stop

00:31:36the Red Bull pit stop

00:31:37and we can see

00:31:38three seconds

00:31:39less time

00:31:41stationary

00:31:41for Verstappen

00:31:42it got him ahead

00:31:43Zach Brown

00:31:44the front left

00:31:45was the really

00:31:46really tricky one

00:31:47didn't you have problems

00:31:48with that

00:31:48in Austria as well?

00:31:51We definitely

00:31:52had problems

00:31:53there on our left

00:31:54left front

00:31:54I don't recall

00:31:55Austria

00:31:55because it wasn't there

00:31:57but anyways

00:31:57we can recover

00:31:58from this

00:31:59we've got two

00:31:59two strong racing cars

00:32:01as this race

00:32:01is far from over

00:32:02I'll tell you what

00:32:03though Zach

00:32:03there are parts

00:32:04of this track

00:32:05it looks like

00:32:05the intermediate

00:32:06might need to be

00:32:07replaced by the weight

00:32:08yeah I think

00:32:09we've got another

00:32:10ten minutes of rain

00:32:11but it's increasing

00:32:12as you can see

00:32:13so this is going to be

00:32:15a crazy race

00:32:16excited

00:32:17any feedback

00:32:18from the drivers

00:32:19they look like

00:32:19they're pretty comfortable

00:32:20out there Zach

00:32:21yeah no they're good

00:32:22and I think

00:32:23as you saw

00:32:23as the rain

00:32:24went down

00:32:25Max was struggling

00:32:26there a bit

00:32:27so I think we're good

00:32:28thanks ever so much

00:32:29Zach

00:32:30we're watching

00:32:31Verstappen and Norris

00:32:32and also Lewis Hamilton

00:32:34trying to get past

00:32:34Esteban Ocon

00:32:35and has just been

00:32:37overtaken by Pierre Gasly

00:32:38didn't see Gasly

00:32:39just saw the places

00:32:40change

00:32:41Lando can see

00:32:42zero in that position

00:32:43yeah it's definitely

00:32:44Wetz right now

00:32:45he can see zero

00:32:46much less than we can see

00:32:47because he's just

00:32:48looking through

00:32:49100 metres

00:32:50of spray

00:32:51but he's way faster

00:32:52than Verstappen

00:32:53in these conditions

00:32:54he really needs

00:32:55to get through there

00:32:55Piastri

00:32:56with a huge lead

00:32:58out front

00:32:58it is absolutely

00:33:01hosing it down

00:33:02over at Stowe

00:33:03currently

00:33:04and on the far side

00:33:05of the track

00:33:05through Maggots

00:33:06and Beckett

00:33:06let's head down

00:33:07to Ted

00:33:08in the pit lane

00:33:09it's chugging it down

00:33:10in the pit lane

00:33:10as well Crofter

00:33:11you would think

00:33:11a yellow flag

00:33:13no it's gone away

00:33:13you would think

00:33:14Charles Leclerc

00:33:15has just gone off

00:33:16but I think

00:33:16he's carried on

00:33:17Ted

00:33:17you'd think

00:33:18that the race director

00:33:19might consider

00:33:20a safety car

00:33:22at least a virtual

00:33:22safety car

00:33:23it's not enough

00:33:24for red flag yet

00:33:25but the teams

00:33:26will be thinking

00:33:26about that

00:33:27Ted safety car

00:33:28good timing

00:33:29I think that is

00:33:29I think that's wise

00:33:30especially considering

00:33:32that the race safety car

00:33:33the race director

00:33:33as we saw earlier on

00:33:35is minded to be

00:33:36a little bit conservative

00:33:37in these matters

00:33:38but no one pitting

00:33:39for extreme wets

00:33:40because well we know

00:33:41that tyre's

00:33:41not really very raceable

00:33:43yeah I'll go along

00:33:44with this decision

00:33:45because we're

00:33:46in getting very close

00:33:48to aquaplaning conditions

00:33:49and that is when

00:33:50drivers

00:33:51have almighty accidents

00:33:53because the car

00:33:54gets up on top

00:33:55with the water

00:33:55bad news for Piastri

00:33:57unfortunately

00:33:58because that means

00:33:59they'll just all

00:34:00catch him up

00:34:02he was 13 seconds

00:34:04clear

00:34:04yeah because Max

00:34:06is struggling

00:34:06with that rear wing

00:34:07level and just

00:34:08generally he was

00:34:10struggling out there

00:34:11and it was

00:34:12all of that great

00:34:13work from Oscar

00:34:14Piastri and the pit

00:34:15crew has just

00:34:16gone to waste

00:34:17so the safety car

00:34:18will pick him up

00:34:19and then the crocodile

00:34:21tail will come

00:34:22to his gearbox

00:34:23let's just

00:34:25see on board

00:34:26with Lewis Hamilton

00:34:27who's down in

00:34:28eighth place

00:34:29and has been

00:34:30struggling in these

00:34:30wet conditions

00:34:31I said he got

00:34:31passed

00:34:32by Pierre Gasly

00:34:34I mean

00:34:35you can't

00:34:36I think Ocon went

00:34:37through and then

00:34:38Gasly went through

00:34:39and I don't think

00:34:40Lewis would have

00:34:41seen either of them

00:34:42and that is

00:34:43his teammate

00:34:44Charles Leclerc

00:34:45racing across the

00:34:47grass

00:34:47and back out

00:34:49onto the track

00:34:49again now

00:34:50that is not the

00:34:51way to cut the

00:34:52corner normally

00:34:52and I'm really

00:34:53glad it worked out

00:34:54without too much

00:34:55apparent damage

00:34:56for Charles Leclerc

00:34:57but I'm just a

00:34:58complete passenger

00:34:59there's water that

00:35:01came into my

00:35:01visor

00:35:02I couldn't see

00:35:02anything

00:35:03like a huge

00:35:04splash of water

00:35:05it's like he's

00:35:05scuba diving

00:35:06rather than going

00:35:07right racing in a

00:35:08Formula One car

00:35:09yeah that's closer

00:35:10to the old

00:35:11Beckett's layout

00:35:13about 40 years ago

00:35:15he took there

00:35:15but hopefully

00:35:16hasn't damaged

00:35:17the underneath

00:35:17of the car

00:35:18and now it's

00:35:19eased off again

00:35:20but they

00:35:22they're obliged

00:35:22they can't just

00:35:23abandon this

00:35:24safety car

00:35:25they've got to

00:35:25go through

00:35:26with the procedure

00:35:27we haven't got

00:35:28any lapped

00:35:29runners to let

00:35:30through

00:35:30so we don't

00:35:31have to go

00:35:31through that

00:35:32misery

00:35:32they can collect

00:35:34them up

00:35:34and it looks

00:35:35to me like

00:35:35if it stops

00:35:36raining

00:35:36very quickly

00:35:38we should be

00:35:38back to

00:35:39racing

00:35:40full racing

00:35:40conditions

00:35:41so outside

00:35:42of the top

00:35:43three

00:35:43let's just

00:35:50running 5th

00:35:51right tyres

00:35:52at the right

00:35:52time

00:35:53exactly

00:35:53yeah

00:35:54that's what

00:35:54they did

00:35:55it's incredible

00:35:56ok

00:35:56we'll put them

00:35:57on for 4 or 5

00:35:58laps

00:35:59because they're

00:35:59quicker

00:35:59we'll win

00:36:01that pit stop

00:36:01back

00:36:02and some

00:36:03and they have

00:36:04and they stayed

00:36:38and Colopinto

00:36:38we have lost

00:36:39in this race

00:36:41after Lawson

00:36:42was hit

00:36:42by Esteban Ocon

00:36:43and Borselletto

00:36:44went off

00:36:45under his own

00:36:46steam

00:36:46and Colopinto

00:36:47stalled

00:36:48in the pits

00:36:49so these cars

00:36:51can lift

00:36:51about 60 litres

00:36:52per second

00:36:53into the air

00:36:54on these tyres

00:36:55at speed

00:36:57so as you can

00:36:58imagine

00:36:58it's not very long

00:37:00before they start

00:37:00clearing a bit

00:37:01of a goat track

00:37:02that's clear

00:37:04of standing water

00:37:06Rachel Brooks

00:37:06weather alert

00:37:08is coming through

00:37:09it's now stopped

00:37:09raining

00:37:09at the Aston Martin

00:37:10factory

00:37:11which is important

00:37:12because that's

00:37:12the way the weather

00:37:13is coming in

00:37:14to the circuit

00:37:15so if it's

00:37:16stopped raining

00:37:16there

00:37:17it will very soon

00:37:18be completely

00:37:18stopping

00:37:19raining here

00:37:20and I can see

00:37:20blue skies

00:37:21and little

00:37:22fluffy white clouds

00:37:23we return to

00:37:24an English summer day

00:37:25in just a few moments

00:37:27although this is

00:37:28an English summer day

00:37:29isn't it

00:37:29the only thing

00:37:29we haven't had yet

00:37:30is snow

00:37:30so I'm going to

00:37:32imagine Piastri's mindset

00:37:33having heard him a lot

00:37:34now he'll be

00:37:35doesn't matter

00:37:35I had a very fast guy

00:37:37I had a 13 second lead

00:37:38because I was very fast

00:37:39so I will be very fast

00:37:40again shortly

00:37:41otherwise if you start

00:37:43stewing

00:37:44that your lead's

00:37:44just evaporated

00:37:45you gain nothing

00:37:48because you couldn't

00:37:48do nothing

00:37:49about it

00:37:49how long

00:37:51when the rain stops

00:37:52do you go

00:37:53behind the safety car

00:37:54until that visibility

00:37:57gets a little bit

00:37:58better

00:37:58because there are

00:37:59drivers who won't

00:38:00be able to see much

00:38:00out there

00:38:01yeah

00:38:01well

00:38:03that's the nature

00:38:04of the game

00:38:05so it's a combination

00:38:07of Ben Meinlander

00:38:08in the safety car

00:38:09he knows what he's

00:38:10looking for

00:38:10but he's not

00:38:11in a

00:38:12with big fat tyres

00:38:13in a single seater

00:38:14the drivers

00:38:16will be feeding

00:38:17information back

00:38:18the race director

00:38:19can look at the track

00:38:20with different cameras

00:38:21and just check

00:38:22standing water

00:38:23visibility's not

00:38:24great there

00:38:25but as always

00:38:27the throttle pedal

00:38:27works both ways

00:38:28it certainly does

00:38:31Tom Felton

00:38:31one of the many

00:38:33A-listers

00:38:33here

00:38:34at the track

00:38:35today

00:38:36watching on

00:38:36at the back

00:38:37of the Mercedes

00:38:38garage

00:38:38A-listers

00:38:39who've come

00:38:39to see

00:38:40motor racing

00:38:40and it's

00:38:41seeped

00:38:41watching the gridwalk

00:38:42just to speak

00:38:43to Martin Grundl

00:38:44who was the most popular man

00:38:45and all the people

00:38:46that we lost places

00:38:47they have worse tyres

00:38:48or we just lose places

00:38:50for fun

00:38:51so Ocon

00:38:52in P17

00:38:53is the only one

00:38:54on significantly

00:38:55P7

00:38:56is the only one

00:38:57on significantly

00:38:58older tyre

00:38:58crazy

00:39:00how

00:39:00you never get it

00:39:02right with me

00:39:03a little bit

00:39:06picked on

00:39:06Fernando Alonso

00:39:07it's a public

00:39:08bashing isn't it

00:39:09oh dear

00:39:10is that because

00:39:11he's seen

00:39:11that his teammates

00:39:12running P4

00:39:13and they very much

00:39:14got it right with him

00:39:15and he's now thinking

00:39:16hang on a minute

00:39:17I'm the one

00:39:18that's been scoring

00:39:19the points

00:39:19in the last

00:39:20three races here

00:39:21Felicity Jones

00:39:23nominated for an Oscar

00:39:24do we get on

00:39:25the Oscar nominations

00:39:26this year

00:39:26for a role in the film

00:39:27I think we should

00:39:28no we don't

00:39:30why would we

00:39:30best role as a commentator

00:39:32in a Hollywood movie

00:39:34I think

00:39:35could be a category

00:39:36of all of her own

00:39:37yes we'll see

00:39:38we'll see

00:39:39see if we've still

00:39:40got a job

00:39:41if there's a sequel

00:39:41then we'll

00:39:42measure it from there

00:39:43safety car

00:39:46still out

00:39:47lap 16

00:39:48of 52

00:39:48here at Silverstone

00:39:50where there are

00:39:51eight different

00:39:52constructors

00:39:52in the top

00:39:53nine positions

00:39:55Ted Kravitz

00:39:56down to you

00:39:56yeah so

00:39:57you might be able

00:39:58to hear in the

00:39:58background

00:39:59all the mechanics

00:40:00with the leaf blowers

00:40:01trying to dry out

00:40:01their pit box

00:40:02not knowing

00:40:03when the next

00:40:04pit stops

00:40:04are going to be

00:40:05if and when

00:40:08but it is starting

00:40:09to dry out

00:40:09just to defend

00:40:10the

00:40:11just come in

00:40:12if there's a

00:40:12replay you need

00:40:12to do

00:40:13just to defend

00:40:14the Aston Martin

00:40:14pit wall

00:40:15they did exactly

00:40:16the same

00:40:17as Max Verstappen

00:40:19Lando Norris

00:40:20Oscar Piastri

00:40:20and Lewis Hamilton

00:40:21so they were in

00:40:22good company

00:40:23pitting

00:40:23Fernando

00:40:25when they did

00:40:26from the old

00:40:27inters to the

00:40:27new inters

00:40:28but as you say

00:40:29for Lance

00:40:30in his position

00:40:31it seemed a bit

00:40:32well a bit of a

00:40:34daring strategy

00:40:35to go on the soft

00:40:36but it just worked

00:40:37slightly better

00:40:37didn't it

00:40:38so I can see

00:40:40Alonso's frustration

00:40:40but it's not like

00:40:42Aston did anything

00:40:42crazy

00:40:43in fact they did

00:40:43exactly the same

00:40:44as the front runners

00:40:45so this looks

00:40:45nearly raceable

00:40:46to me now

00:40:47again

00:40:47and it's a good

00:40:49chance to see

00:40:50the aerodynamics

00:40:51on a Formula 1 car

00:40:52the way that

00:40:52when they're a little

00:40:53bit higher speed

00:40:54the way that

00:40:55the water

00:40:56tumbles out the back

00:40:57and just desperately

00:40:58trying to keep

00:40:59some temperature

00:40:59especially if your

00:41:00tyres are used

00:41:01as Esteban Ocon

00:41:03must be horribly

00:41:05used

00:41:05because he hasn't

00:41:06pitted yet

00:41:06Lewis looked like

00:41:07he was really

00:41:08struggling in the

00:41:09heavy water

00:41:09didn't he

00:41:09in the Ferrari

00:41:10lost places

00:41:11now down in

00:41:12eighth

00:41:13and

00:41:15we've done a couple

00:41:16of laps on those

00:41:17enters as you

00:41:18could see

00:41:18so DRS will be

00:41:19disabled again

00:41:20now

00:41:20until they come up

00:41:22with normal track

00:41:23conditions

00:41:23and re-enable it

00:41:25as we saw

00:41:26earlier on

00:41:27Laura Muller there

00:41:28Esteban Ocon's

00:41:30engineer

00:41:30running in

00:41:31seventh

00:41:32and

00:41:33with a

00:41:34dearing strategy

00:41:35but you

00:41:35drivers got to

00:41:36keep it on

00:41:36the black stuff

00:41:37Lewis Hamilton

00:41:39on the radio

00:41:39saying that

00:41:40it is pretty

00:41:40dangerous at the

00:41:41moment to

00:41:42continue onwards

00:41:43in terms of

00:41:44turn one

00:41:45he said

00:41:45I can't see

00:41:46the car

00:41:46ahead of me

00:41:48oh

00:41:48and that

00:41:49Oscar Piastri

00:41:50slowing down

00:41:51there

00:41:51and Max Verstappen

00:41:52almost steaming

00:41:53right past him

00:41:54into Brooklyn

00:41:55unless Verstappen

00:41:56was hanging back

00:41:57accelerating

00:41:58then trying to

00:41:58generate some

00:41:59temperature

00:41:59into his brakes

00:42:01but Oscar

00:42:02Piastri

00:42:03as long as he

00:42:03doesn't let the

00:42:03safety car go

00:42:04more than 10

00:42:05car lengths

00:42:05ahead

00:42:06it can

00:42:07dictate the

00:42:08pace

00:42:08to a certain

00:42:09extent

00:42:10he's

00:42:11did you hear him

00:42:12lighting the

00:42:13back axle up

00:42:13there

00:42:14George Russell

00:42:16asking on the

00:42:17radio

00:42:18why this race

00:42:19hasn't been

00:42:19red flagged

00:42:20but to me

00:42:21this is a

00:42:21really sensible

00:42:22solution

00:42:23we don't really

00:42:23want a red flag

00:42:24and then hang

00:42:25around and wait

00:42:26to start again

00:42:26let's just

00:42:27neutralize the

00:42:28race and wait

00:42:29for the spray

00:42:30to die down

00:42:31and allow the

00:42:32intermediate

00:42:32tyres to

00:42:33disperse the

00:42:34water that is

00:42:34on the track

00:42:35and then we

00:42:36can get racing

00:42:36again

00:42:36yeah I think

00:42:37that might be

00:42:38tactical from

00:42:38George there

00:42:39because it

00:42:39would play

00:42:40into his

00:42:40hands at the

00:42:40moment down

00:42:41there in

00:42:41ninth place

00:42:42but how

00:42:44long are we

00:42:44going to keep

00:42:45the safety

00:42:46car out

00:42:47no sign of

00:42:48it in this

00:42:49lap in this

00:42:50lap that's

00:42:51great so

00:42:52brilliant

00:42:52now there'll

00:42:54be plenty of

00:42:54spray but

00:42:55that's that's

00:42:57why they're the

00:42:58best in the

00:42:58world

00:42:58he's not a

00:42:59bad designer

00:43:01of cars

00:43:02either the

00:43:03best in the

00:43:03world when it

00:43:04comes to

00:43:04to doodling

00:43:05racing cars

00:43:06Adrian Newey

00:43:07working now

00:43:08for Aston

00:43:08Martin

00:43:09Ed Westwick

00:43:10that is a

00:43:12proper gallery

00:43:13at the back

00:43:13of the Mercedes

00:43:14garage some

00:43:15amazing actors

00:43:16and an acting

00:43:18talent there

00:43:18let's focus

00:43:19though on the

00:43:20live sporting

00:43:21talent ahead of

00:43:22us Oscar

00:43:23Piastri

00:43:23weaving around

00:43:24trying to

00:43:25generate some

00:43:26heat into those

00:43:26tyres

00:43:27safety car is

00:43:28ending

00:43:29George Russell

00:43:30just wiping

00:43:31there his

00:43:32visor to get

00:43:33rid of a few

00:43:33drops of water

00:43:34as they head

00:43:35around Stowe

00:43:36Verstappen is

00:43:36lying in wait

00:43:37there for

00:43:38Piastri

00:43:38waiting for him

00:43:39to get going

00:43:40I think he

00:43:40has got going

00:43:41now

00:43:41they can't

00:43:42overtake until

00:43:43they get to

00:43:45the line

00:43:46but Piastri

00:43:47wants a good

00:43:47charge out of

00:43:48this corner

00:43:49and to the

00:43:49gate any threat

00:43:50from behind

00:43:51as we go

00:43:51racing again

00:43:52yes here we

00:43:53go George

00:43:54Russell around

00:43:54the outside

00:43:55looking for a

00:43:56run around

00:43:56Lewis Hamilton

00:43:57the spray

00:43:58behind Piastri

00:43:59is massive

00:44:00sort of telling

00:44:01about the

00:44:01aerodynamics

00:44:02of the car

00:44:02and seeing

00:44:03how it works

00:44:04in those

00:44:05conditions

00:44:05and George

00:44:07Russell has

00:44:07got ahead

00:44:08of Lewis

00:44:08Hamilton

00:44:09we were

00:44:09looking almost

00:44:10at cloud

00:44:11cover not

00:44:11just spray

00:44:12Russell knew

00:44:13that Hamilton

00:44:14struggling to

00:44:15get temperature

00:44:15into his

00:44:16tyres straight

00:44:16away and

00:44:17he's ahead

00:44:17and that is

00:44:18Lewis Hamilton

00:44:19now getting

00:44:19the place

00:44:20back again

00:44:20and Esteban

00:44:21Ocon losing

00:44:22out to George

00:44:23Russell

00:44:23so Hamilton

00:44:24in 7th

00:44:25Russell 8th

00:44:25Ocon 9th

00:44:26Hamilton's

00:44:27picked up

00:44:27a place

00:44:27and so

00:44:28has Russell

00:44:28and Ocon's

00:44:29lost 2 places

00:44:30as we go

00:44:30further back

00:44:31down

00:44:31there's Yuki

00:44:32Tsunoda

00:44:33under pressure

00:44:34from Charles

00:44:34Leclerc

00:44:35in the battle

00:44:35for 13th

00:44:36yes I think

00:44:37Russell got

00:44:37tucked up

00:44:38behind Ocon

00:44:39struggling

00:44:39to get those

00:44:40heavily used

00:44:41enters

00:44:41back up

00:44:42to speed

00:44:42and grip

00:44:43and Lewis

00:44:44saw the

00:44:44opportunity

00:44:45down at the

00:44:46inside of

00:44:46Brooklyn's

00:44:47goes Charles

00:44:47Leclerc

00:44:48on Yuki

00:44:48Tsunoda

00:44:49gets his

00:44:49elbows out

00:44:50takes that

00:44:5013th place

00:44:51there

00:44:52from the

00:44:52Red Bull

00:45:10in 3rd

00:45:10looking like

00:45:11he's struggling

00:45:12for visibility

00:45:13there is the

00:45:14gap

00:45:14and Stroll

00:45:15then running

00:45:16nicely in 4th

00:45:17he is very

00:45:17good

00:45:18in these

00:45:18conditions

00:45:19Isaac Hadja

00:45:20on the run

00:45:21to Copse

00:45:21has come

00:45:22to a

00:45:23standstill

00:45:23you can see

00:45:24it on your

00:45:25screen

00:45:25that's why

00:45:26we've got

00:45:26a yellow

00:45:26flag

00:45:27and we've

00:45:28got another

00:45:28safety car

00:45:29and that

00:45:30is Isaac

00:45:31Hadja

00:45:31facing the

00:45:32wrong way

00:45:33and damage

00:45:34to the

00:45:35front of

00:45:35his car

00:45:36he dropped

00:45:37it on the

00:45:38way in

00:45:38that is

00:45:39quite significant

00:45:40damage on

00:45:41the right

00:45:41hand side

00:45:41and I'm

00:45:42really glad

00:45:42that he's

00:45:43radioing in

00:45:44to say

00:45:44I'm okay

00:45:45that's quite

00:45:47that's quite

00:45:48the accident

00:45:48there

00:45:49it's rather

00:45:50a cul-de-sac

00:45:51isn't it

00:45:51when you get

00:45:51down there

00:45:52next stop

00:45:53Northampton

00:45:54if you get

00:45:54through that

00:45:55lot

00:45:55but

00:45:55we think

00:45:58he's touched

00:45:58the back

00:45:59of another

00:45:59car

00:46:00which is why

00:46:00he's lost

00:46:00it on the

00:46:01way in

00:46:01you don't

00:46:02normally

00:46:03lose it

00:46:03there

00:46:03so under

00:46:04a safety

00:46:04car

00:46:05Esteban Ocon

00:46:06now comes

00:46:07into the

00:46:07pits

00:46:07for the

00:46:08first time

00:46:09Anthony

00:46:09Davidson

00:46:10on our

00:46:10pit wall

00:46:11with all

00:46:11the data

00:46:12and our

00:46:12pit wall

00:46:13race

00:46:13control

00:46:13what

00:46:14happened

00:46:14to Isaac

00:46:15Hadja

00:46:15yeah

00:46:16Crofty

00:46:17I can

00:46:17just see

00:46:17he couldn't

00:46:18see the

00:46:18car in front

00:46:19of him

00:46:19and just

00:46:20completely

00:46:20rammed into

00:46:21the back

00:46:21there's just

00:46:22nothing he

00:46:22could do

00:46:23the red

00:46:23lights

00:46:23the rain

00:46:24lights

00:46:24came out

00:46:24of absolutely

00:46:25nowhere

00:46:26oh that is

00:46:27such bad luck

00:46:28for racing

00:46:29balls

00:46:29Antonelli we believe

00:46:30Crofty

00:46:30Antonelli

00:46:31is the one

00:46:31he hit

00:46:32who is running

00:46:33down in 15th

00:46:34with only Esteban Ocon

00:46:36who's just pitted

00:46:36behind him

00:46:37I don't think

00:46:39this is where

00:46:39they would have

00:46:40wanted to have

00:46:40pitted Esteban Ocon

00:46:41he's lost an awful

00:46:42lot of places

00:46:43but I get the

00:46:43feeling Martin

00:46:44he had no grip

00:46:45he had no grip

00:46:46but you wonder

00:46:46why they didn't

00:46:47pit him under

00:46:47the previous

00:46:48safety car

00:46:48in that case

00:46:49it's almost like

00:46:50they wanted to

00:46:50hang on to

00:46:50that position

00:46:51but look at

00:46:52the visibility

00:46:53watch this

00:46:53down the old

00:46:54pit straight

00:46:55we go

00:46:55you can barely

00:46:56make out

00:46:57the red

00:46:57oh the red

00:46:59lights

00:46:59and he went

00:47:00straight into

00:47:01the back

00:47:01of Antonelli

00:47:02and that's

00:47:02him out

00:47:02I didn't

00:47:03see him

00:47:03I mean

00:47:04he appeared

00:47:04out of nowhere

00:47:05man

00:47:05oh my god

00:47:06and Lewis

00:47:08Hamilton

00:47:08was saying

00:47:09the same

00:47:09thing at

00:47:09turn one

00:47:10just can't

00:47:10see the

00:47:11car in

00:47:11front

00:47:12this is what

00:47:13it felt like

00:47:14for Kimi

00:47:14Antonelli

00:47:15and how he

00:47:17stayed on the

00:47:17track I'm not

00:47:18quite sure

00:47:18he did well

00:47:19to hang on

00:47:20to that one

00:47:21so

00:47:21and he was

00:47:22struggling for

00:47:23visibility as

00:47:24well

00:47:24which is why

00:47:25he was pretty

00:47:26cautious on the

00:47:27throttle

00:47:27it's caught

00:47:28Hatcher out

00:47:29and this

00:47:30and this is where

00:47:30George Russell

00:47:31got past

00:47:32Lewis Hamilton

00:47:33on the

00:47:34Lewis Hamilton

00:47:34straight

00:47:35and we can

00:47:37move forward

00:47:37a little bit

00:47:38towards

00:47:38village

00:47:39Russell gets

00:47:40stuck behind

00:47:41knock on

00:47:41who almost

00:47:42collected

00:47:43Lewis Hamilton

00:47:43there

00:47:44that gap was

00:47:44disappearing

00:47:45fast

00:47:46before Hamilton

00:47:47managed to get

00:47:48past

00:47:48yeah very

00:47:49opportune there

00:47:50from Lewis to

00:47:50get two places

00:47:52back effectively

00:47:52and yeah

00:47:55off he goes

00:47:56and he's still

00:47:57holding that place

00:47:58ahead of Russell

00:47:58of course

00:47:59there's Antonelli

00:48:00will he have

00:48:01damage

00:48:01there's the rear

00:48:03crash structure

00:48:03if you hit that

00:48:04square on is

00:48:05really solid

00:48:06so with a bit

00:48:08of luck

00:48:08Antonelli's

00:48:09floor and his

00:48:10rear wing look

00:48:11fine his floor

00:48:12will be okay

00:48:13so we've got

00:48:14an Alpine

00:48:14with Franco

00:48:15Colopinto

00:48:15and two racing

00:48:16balls with

00:48:17Lawson and

00:48:18Hajar

00:48:18all out of

00:48:19this race

00:48:20and the first

00:48:21double DNF

00:48:21four racing

00:48:22balls

00:48:22it's China

00:48:29as I said

00:48:29earlier

00:48:30the two drivers

00:48:30with career

00:48:31best finishes

00:48:32in Austria

00:48:32out before

00:48:34the end

00:48:34of lap

00:48:35six

00:48:35Toto Wolf

00:48:36with the

00:48:37traditional

00:48:37British

00:48:38summertime

00:48:38cap

00:48:39there

00:48:39as

00:48:39Mercedes

00:48:40Benz

00:48:41opt for

00:48:41the flat

00:48:41caps

00:48:42this afternoon

00:48:42a cloudy

00:48:43face

00:48:44he's got

00:48:44one car

00:48:44in eighth

00:48:45and the

00:48:46other

00:48:46down in

00:48:4715th

00:48:47at the

00:48:48moment

00:48:48so it's

00:48:49not going

00:48:49terribly

00:48:50well

00:48:50they took

00:48:51a gamble

00:48:51on slicks

00:48:52that didn't

00:48:53yield much

00:48:54for them

00:48:55not sure

00:48:55they needed

00:48:55to do it

00:48:56with George

00:48:57Russell

00:48:57either

00:48:57it was

00:48:58giving up

00:48:59a lot

00:48:59of places

00:48:59I think

00:49:01yes there

00:49:01was a

00:49:02reward

00:49:02but there

00:49:02was more

00:49:03risk

00:49:03associated

00:49:04with that

00:49:05reward

00:49:05Lewis Hamilton

00:49:07seems to be

00:49:07struggling to

00:49:08generate

00:49:08temperature

00:49:09into his

00:49:10tyres

00:49:11Anna

00:49:12Taylor

00:49:36be closed

00:49:37up again

00:49:38now

00:49:38which leaves

00:49:39for

00:49:39Piastri

00:49:40in the front

00:49:40runners

00:49:40when they

00:49:42lovely

00:49:44of the

00:49:44race

00:49:45again

00:49:54safety car

00:49:54because the

00:49:55visibility
