Lewis Hamilton won the British Grand Prix for a record sixth time.
The world champion took advantage of a safety car 20 laps into the race to emerge ahead of his Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas and extend his world championship lead to 39 points.
The victory – Hamilton’s seventh in 10 races – was celebrated wildly by a partisan crowd of 141,000, a Silverstone high.
