The Autosport F1 Podcast

The fallout from the frantic first lap, which saw Max Verstappen hit the tyre wall in a 51G impact at Copse corner and Lewis Hamilton receive a 10 second penalty, has continued for hours after the race. We wanted to understand some different perspectives on the podcast today, so first up we talk to Ben Anderson (Editor, GP Racing). Ben has driven many laps of Silverstone and competed in races where overtaking at Copse did not end up the same as we saw in Formula 1. Ben provides an insight into what it’s like behind the wheel when going into battle at that corner. Then we talk to Mike Mulder (Editor, motorsport.com Netherlands) to hear the Dutch perspective, and how they viewed the incident.  Ariana Bravo is fresh from interviewing the divers in the paddock and joined by Jake Boxall-Legge (Technical Editor, Autosport) to analyse the rest of the action at the British Grand Prix.

The crowds filled the Silverstone grandstands at the British Grand Prix as part of a trial project to re-open sporting events, and they saw plenty of action. That's because this weekend sees qualifying move to a Friday evening, which dictates the starting grid for Saturday's Sprint qualifying race. Whilst today wasn’t an official pole position (that honour goes to the winner of tomorrow’s race) it certainly had all the tension of a typical shootout. Ariana Bravo is back in the paddock hosting coverage for our colleagues at Formula 1, and she is joined today by Jonathan Noble (F1 Editor, motorsport.com) to discuss if this new format was a success.
