Formula 1 - British Grand Prix at Silverstone Betting Preview

Host Carl Lewis chats to motorsport journalist Sean Parker ahead of the British GP as Formula 1 is back after a fortnight and the teams are back across the pond after Max Verstappen's fifth win in six races at the Canadian Grand Prix.

This weekend at the historic Silverstone circuit is likely to be a sell-out and traditionally is one of the best-supported races on the calendar. The Mercedes pair of Lewis Hamilton and George Russell are the first all-British driver pairing since the seven-time world champion and Jenson Button 10 years ago.

The 5.89km track features the high-speed corners Maggots, Becketts, and Chapel Curve that were introduced in 1991 with speed peaking at over 300km/h with the drivers fully committed. Red Bull's Sergio Perez and Aston Martin's Lance Stroll have shown admiration for the second sector while Hamilton compared driving flat-out at his home race to flying a fighter jet.
