  6. ‘I couldn’t work out what changed’published at 14:07 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    It has been a tough weekend for Haas. Romain Grosjean, whose car has been reverted to the Australia-spec as at the start of the season, smashed himself into the pit lane wall on Friday and team-mate Kevin Magnussen failed to get out of Q1 yesterday.

    “I don’t really know what happened,” said Magnussen. “I had a good car and we were optimistic of being close to the front of that middle group. I thought it would be good and it got to qualifying and I couldn’t work out what changed.

    “I feel he (Grosjean) has been too close considering l’ve got the upgraded car. Something must have gone wrong in the garage. For him to come here with an older car and be quicker than me is not good.”

    Grosjean added: “It’s not what we like but it’s what is best for the team at the moment.”

    Grosjean starts 14th, two places in front of Magnussen.

    Busy, busy, busy out on track. If you’re wondering what the building work is next to the start line then it’s a new hotel which is set to be completed next summer.

    Then you’ll be able to wake up, open the curtains and look straight out on to the track.

  11. Problems for Red Bull?published at 14:02 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    Uh oh. A flurry of activity around Max Verstappen's car down on the grid. Christian Horner doesn't sound too concerned, though.

    "We just found a little issue with an endplate," he tells Sky Sports. "Needed changing and that is what they have done."

    Soprano Alicia Lowes has just sang God Save the Queen on the grid, the Red Arrows have flown over ahead, all that's left now is for the drivers to get into the cars and for the British Grand Prix to get under way!

  14. What strategy to expect?published at 13:54 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    Andrew Benson
    BBC Sport’s chief F1 writer at Silverstone

    Strategy looks somewhere between a one-and a two-stop. And it’s difficult to predict who will do what and how.

    Mercedes and Red Bull are convinced Ferrari have made a mistake in choosing the soft as the start tyre, but Ferrari themselves are quite happy with it. Are they going soft-soft-hard on a two-stop, as Pirelli predict is the quickest strategy?

    Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton are the only drivers in the top 10 with a new set of softs available for the race. Does choosing the medium mean Mercedes and Red Bull are going to try a one-stop? On softs, the first pit-stop window is laps nine to 17; on mediums 14-22. Pit-stop time loss is 19 seconds under green flag conditions; 11 under a safety car of one kind or another.

    Philip West: Of the current tracks used in #F1, external, Silverstone is probably in the bottom five or six. It’s way, way behind Monza, Austin, Spa, Suzuka, Montreal, and Interlagos. It’s not even the best racetrack in the UK, either, despite all of this ‘Silverstone romance’’ stuff. #BritishGP, external#BBCF1, external

    Ferrari won this race last year with Sebastian Vettel’s success and both Vettel, in sixth, and third-placed Charles Leclerc start on the red soft tyres with the front-row pairing of Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton beginning on the yellow mediums.

    Leclerc later revealed that this had been Ferrari’s strategy all along and he has an idea of what he wants to happen at the start.

    “I get a good start, then after seven laps it rains and I keep position,” he joked.

  20. What's in Dan's camping bag?published at 13:47 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    Renault opened their doors to us last week and we got to sit down with Daniel Ricciardo.

    The Australian was in fine form, chatting about all sorts - from his thoughts on his season so far, his hopes for the rest of the season and... camping at Silverstone.

    We asked him what three things he would make sure he grabbed if he ever pitched up in Northamptonshire. Check out his response below.
