F1 returned home.
In 1950 it all started at Silverstone. The spiritual end of the series will host the tenth race weekend of the 2022 season.
Brits love formulas. A huge crowd had already arrived for the opening rehearsals, even though the weather was typically miserable in Britain.
However, the weather improved as the training session progressed. At the end, the drivers were able to drive on the track with dry weather tires.
In slippery conditions, one journey ended on the sand. No prize among those who guessed correctly: Lance Stroll couldn’t keep his Aston Martin on the road.
Stroll’s reputation as an occasional but error-prone toll driver has been deeply ingrained. At least such performances do not help.
Rush hour shook Valtteri Bottas With his Alfa Romeo. The Finn’s fastest time was set on intermediate weather tires. Old team mate Lewis Hamilton drove on slicks. The time difference was half a second.
Today we will run another practice session.
