With a fight to the finish, a horror crash and a maiden win, Silverstone delivered a typical British GP classic
Of course, there’s room for improvement at the old airfield. As my family found, two hours to escape from the car park to the A43 was a sorry and all too familiar story. But what a day we had had. Silverstone’s current deal with F1, which has made the race viable for the circuit for the first time in decades, is up in 2024. But let’s forego the usual months of wrangling and fear stories about the British GP’s future – and don’t hold the climate-protesters incident against the circuit either.
Silverstone is more than F1’s spiritual home: it’s also among the best venues the championship travels to anywhere in the world. It almost makes me proud to be British.You would need a heart of flint not to be cheered by Carlos Sainz Jr’s first victory at the 150th time of asking. The Spaniard is a lovely chap and a credit both to his old man and Ferrari. But he shouldn’t have won the British GP if his team is serious about winning the world championship this year.
