Silverstone hosts the British Grand Prix in the second double-header of the Formula One season, with Lewis Hamilton starting on pole position after a blistering display in qualifying.

Hamilton did not have it all his own way as the home favourite spun in Q2, resulting in him having to use an extra set of tires to get through to Q3.

But after securing his passage through to the final session of qualifying, Hamilton delivered a new track lap record to seal pole position ahead of Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas, with the Mercedes pair a second a lap quicker than the next fastest car in Max Verstappen.

Hamilton takes a slender five-point lead into the four race of the 2020 season, but victory today would help to put breathing space between himself and Bottas in what appears to be a two-horse race in this year’s championship.

Drier changes

With Sergio Perez ruled out of action, Racing Point will have to make a decision on who to replace the Mexican with as they intend on racing two cars this weekend. Esteban Gutierrez is one option, with the Mercedes reserve driver the allocated back-up for Racing Point this weekend as Stoffel Vandoorne is unavailable. But Gutierrez has not raced an F1 car since leaving Alfa Romeo (formerly Sauber) at the end of 2014.

A more recent and likely option is Nico Hulkenberg, with the German missing out on a seat in 2020 after being replaced at Renault by Esteban Ocon. Hulkenberg drove for the Racing Point team in their former guise as Force India in 2012 and from 2014 to 2016.
