Nico Hulkenberg has finally claimed his first F1 podium at Silverstone after 239 race starts, whilst Lewis Hamilton was just shy of his first top three finish with Ferrari.

In a thrilling British GP, Lando Norris beat Oscar Piastri to take his first home win, but Hamilton was unable to catch Hulkenberg to become the second Brit on the podium at Silverstone.

On the second safety car restart, race leader Piastri was too slow in the eyes of the stewards and was given a 10-second time penalty, whilst Max Verstappen spun and tumbled down to P11.

Early chaos dominated the opening laps of the British GP, with half of the grid switching to slick tyres whilst Liam Lawson was sent into the barriers on the Wellington Straight by Esteban Ocon.

Franco Colapinto and Gabriel Bortoleto were also early retirements from the race, with the Sauber driver struggling in the greasy conditions after he spun out onto the gravel.

Elsewhere, Isack Hadjar hit the back of Kimi Antonelli's Mercedes and suffered a huge crash into the barriers, with both drivers joining the list of retirements.

Who is the current F1 world champion?

Max Verstappen is the reigning F1 champion, won his fourth drivers' championship last year.

2025 rule change removes fastest lap point

Fastest lap points have been banished for 2025. Since 2019, drivers have picked up an extra point if they finish in the top 10 and achieve the fastest lap.

However, it did lead to some drivers abandoning their races to pit and fit a set of new tyres at the end in order to claim the fastest lap point, or to stop a rival from getting the extra point.

The most famous example of this in 2024 came during Daniel Ricciardo's final F1 race, when the Australian finished last but claimed the fastest lap on the final lap of the Singapore GP, taking the extra point away from Lando Norris and helping Max Verstappen's title bid.
