The British Grand Prix usually throws up a few surprises and in 2017, in a tantalizing title battle, the historic event delivered once more. It was a British Grand Prix to remember, whether you’re a fan of Lewis Hamilton or Sebastian Vettel.

When it comes to spectacular launch events, one manufacturer has the rest of them licked.

While the future of the British Grand Prix remains uncertain, this weekends qualifying provided a surprise at the hallowed grounds of Silverstone. Lewis Hamilton drove to an impressive pole position in today’s Qualifying for the British Grand Prix.
