World champion fastest by a 10th from Piastri and NorrisRussell fourth for Mercedes, Hamilton fifth for FerrariMax Verstappen claimed pole for the British Grand Prix for Red Bull, a blistering run beating the McLarens of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris into second and third.

Under Andrea Stella’s astute leadership, McLaren have bounced back from rock bottom, and Norris and Piastri will be the star attractions this weekendAs a celebration of a sporting revival, McLaren might consider this year’s British Grand Prix a chance to revel in finally returning as the headline act at Formula One’s Glastonbury.
