70 years ago, the Formula One world championship was established and the sport embarked on the 1950 season – it would start at Silverstone.
The once-derelict wartime airbase has since brought countless F1 seasons to life with some extraordinary British Grand Prix races, and this last weekend was absolutely no exception.
For the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix it will be the same venue, same teams, same drivers and same regulations as the British Grand Prix but with a slight tweak from tire supplier Pirelli. It has moved one step softer with its three compounds compared to last week’s encounter, opting for the C2, C3 and C4.
Follow us later in the afternoon for the latest updates and results from the Silverstone Circuit, as the qualifying session for the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix is about to get underway, with Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc at the wheel of the SF1000.
