British driver hopes to keep record crowd happy on his home circuit

London — Lewis Hamilton can keep the good news coming at Silverstone this weekend by winning his home British Grand Prix for a record sixth time in front of the biggest crowd since the days of “Mansell Mania”.

Hamilton, 31 points clear of Finnish teammate Valtteri Bottas, has won four of the last five races at Silverstone — losing out in 2018 to Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel after starting on pole position. With Mercedes winning all but one race in 2019, a dominant run that was ended in Austria at the end of June by Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, they will again start as favourites.

“We do not expect Silverstone to suit our car particularly well, but at every race we have seen that the balance of power can change, often unexpectedly,” said Binotto.
