Lewis Hamilton will be out for a measure of redemption at the British Grand Prix, as he looks to make amends for failing to win his home race last year.

Sebastian Vettel secured victory at Silverstone last year, a triumph that looked to have turned the tables his way in the title fight, although Hamilton soon put paid to that with a stunning surge.

This time around Hamilton is well clear in the quest for title number six and Mercedes are looking to bounce back from an underwhelming display in Austria, which saw Max Verstappen pip Charles Leclerc.

Valtteri Bottas secured his fourth pole position of 2019, ending Hamilton's four-year run of Saturday success at Silverstone.

Can Lewis turn the tables as he goes in search of a record-breaking sixth win at his home race? Here's how you can tune in to the action.

Lewis Hamilton, 2014 Bahrain GP - 1st

Hamilton jumps Rosberg off the line, but can't shake him and Nico has two goes at the pass on lap 18 and 19, briefly getting ahead, but running wide and Hamilton getting back through, chopping across Rosberg, who said: "Warn him that was not on." After pitting, Hamilton opens up a big lead, but that gets wiped out by famous Maldonado-Gutierrez crash. As safety car comes in, Paddy Lowe says to bring both cars home, but Rosberg keeps making dives at Hamilton, who defends right to the limit and wins. They play fought in parc ferme but the battles would get much more angry.

Jules Bianchi, 2014 Monaco GP - 9th

Bianchi started 21st on the grid, having needed a gearbox penalty. Marussia were pretty turd. He got a five-second penalty right at the start for lining up in the wrong grid slot, and then earned another one when Marussia took the penalty under a safety car period. Brilliant wheel-banging overtake on Kobayashi, and similarly bold stuff to overtake Vergne

Max Verstappen, 2016 Brazil GP - 3rd Wet dry wet race causes chaos, Red Bull pit in crazy situation. But Max goes bananas, producing overtake after overtake and also catching a huge spin, "the heartrate went up a bit there!" Announced Max as a perfect wet weather driver, a sign of greatness.

Daniel Ricciardo, 2017 Azerbaijan GP - 1st

Mad race. Ricciardo crashed in quali and started 10th and pitted on lap 6 to clear debris off his front wing, comes back out in 17th. Big Ocon and Perez crash leaves debris on track and brings out red flag. And Ricci is somehow fifth. Hamilton, Vettel collision under another safety car, and Hamilton's headrest gets loose.

Lewis Hamilton, 2018 German GP - 1st

Starts 14th after qualifying shocker, tries to do a lap of Hockenheim pushing his car, was quite funny. Race comes with big threat of rain, all five compounds of tyre in use at some point – Gasly on the full wets lol – Vettel and Raikkonen get in each other's way and Hamilton goes mad, lapping three seconds quicker than anyone on ultrasofts and pressures Vettel into
