Nice performance of the Frenchman who started from sixth place. The Force India driver is seventh and will score big points.

Bottas' Mercedes is in huge trouble and has just left the podium. Raikkonen is now third

at 16:35

Ocon in Points

Esteban Ocon is the only French to be in the points. He is currently eighth, behind Hulkenberg and ahead of Magnussen.

at 16:25

Vettel attack Bottas (Turn 42)

Big defense of Valtteri Bottas while Vettel was on the attack. Rough but valid. The Finn holds but for how long?

at 16:23

It's back to Silverstone!

At the end of the 41st lap, the safety car departs and it's gone again in Grande Britain

Leclerc is disappointed inevitably

Charles Leclerc pbaded over ] Cbad + to return to his abandonment: " I do not know what happened.
I think it's a problem with the pit stop. It happens. It is
unfortunate but it's part of motorsport. We were doing a great
race and I think seventh place was accessible. It's a pity but we can not change anything.
"

at 16:10

The point on the race

Bottas leads ahead of Vettel and Hamilton. Verstappen, Raikkonen and Ricciardo follow. Note that everyone has made two stops among the top six except the two Mercedes. If Hamilton stopped late, this is not the case for Bottas … Ocon is eighth, Grosjean is eleventh and Gasly thirteenth. We are still on a safety car system

at 16:06

Vettel at the pits!

He puts the tires soft while Bottas stays on the track. The Finn is leader in front of the German and Lewis Hamilton

with 16:04

Big shock for Ericsson! (Tour 33)

Silverstone's safety car and public clamor! Ericsson lost control because of the DRS and went to fit his Sauber into the tire wall. The Swede is well.

Bottas returns to Vettel

Two seconds difference between the two drivers head of the race. The Mercedes does not let go and Vettel seems in management. Unless the Ferrari can not go faster?

at 16:01

Ricciardo still at the stands

Surprising. Daniel Ricciardo has only made twelve rounds with his medium tires and has just pbaded through the pit lane. The Australian leaves with soft tires but is now sixth

at 15:58

Hamilton fastest (Tour 30)

Exceptional. Lewis Hamilton goes terribly well and just snapped the fastest time in the race (1: 31.682). He is sixth and is based on Raikkonen who stumbles on Ricciardo.

at 15:56

Grosjean stops in his turn

The French makes his only stop in this race and stands out in 15th position

Lap 27 and this time it's @RGrosjean paying us a visit. Same as Kev – switches out his softs for mediums. # HaasF1 #BritishGP

– Haas F1 Team (@ HaasF1Team) July 8, 2018

ion. Haas pay dearly for the stormy start of Silverstone. It will be difficult for Grosjean to get points

at 15:54

Problems with Vettel tires?

Mercedes mechanics told Bottas that the German had destroyed his tires on the first relay. Note that the Finn has only three seconds behind Vettel

at 15:52

Hamilton in the pits! (Turn 25)

Bad stop for Hamilton (3.5 seconds). The Briton comes in 6th position, behind Raikkonen.

at 15:51

Raikkonen on Ricciardo's attack

Now here are some tricks that the Finn is beating on the Australian. He took risks and even went to see outside the route.

Hamilton gives way to Bottas

Team strategy at the German brand. While Lewis Hamilton had just announced that his tires were still good, he just left to leave second place to Valtteri Bottas

at 15:44

Vettel in the pit lane! (Tour 20)

Average stop at Ferrari but Vettel comes in second place, ahead of Lewis Hamilton. Change of leader, then? No. Since Bottas imitates it the next turn. The Finnish driver from Mercedes stands in third position.

Abandon for Leclerc (Tour 19)

While he had just made his stop, Charles Leclerc, though in the points, just gave up. The cause is still mysterious but it is quite possible that this is due to a wheel not fixed.

Ricciardo stops in turn

At Red Bull, we were afraid of the Raikkonen ascent and we anticipated the two pilots' stops. Ricciardo came out just ahead of the Finn. Well seen from the Austrian team

at 15:41

Raikkonen sixth (Tour 19)

The Finn is unleashed. He has just got rid of Leclerc then Sainz. He points to eight seconds from Verstappen

at 15:40

Verstappen in the stands

The Dutchman, third until then, goes through the stands and comes out with mediums. He is fifth in front of … Raikkonen.

Raikkonen, boosted, rises strong

The second Ferrari driver takes advantage of his new tires to make a spectacular comeback. He is already eighth with his medium tires. He has just signed the fastest time in the race at the moment

at 15:34

Raikkonen in the pits! (Turn 13)

The Finn, very angry in his radio, carries out his penalty of ten seconds and then the mechanics intervene. It stands out, 11th, behind Magnussen. Hard blow for the Finn who left with medium tires.

Stabilized gap between Vettel and Bottas

Very fast at the start of the race, Vettel dropped the pace and Bottas now manages to shoot at the same time as the German. A little less than six seconds separate the two cars.

at 15:31

Hamilton is 6th

The Briton made a strong one by winning twelve places in ten laps. He is now sixth but twelve seconds behind Ricciardo, fifth. He points to 28 seconds of the leader, Vettel.

at 15:30

Focus on the French (Tour 11)

Esteban Ocon is 9th with his Force India. He is the only Habs in the points since Grosjean is in 14th place, just behind Pierre Gasly.

at 15:26

Hamilton goes back

The Brit swallows the pilots one after the other. Here he is now 8th after pbading Ocon. He will now attack Charles Leclerc

From P18 to P8 in NINE LAPS !! There is a fire roaring in Lewis Hamilton's belly this afternoon … ??? #BritishGP ?? # F1

The Haas lost big

The two Haas pilots were trapped by the Hamilton-Raikkonen incident. They had to go outside to avoid the accident and are now far away. Magnussen is 11th while Grosjean is 14th.

at 15:21

Impressive Vettel!

More than five seconds ahead of Sebastian Vettel. The Ferrari is impressive and Valtteri Bottas can not keep pace. Raikkonen honks him behind Verstappen

at 15:18

What a departure for Renault !!

In this chaos, it is the Renault that has done well. Hulkenberg is sixth and has won five positions that Sainz is ninth and has already gained seven places.

Abandonment for Hartley

The pilot Toro Rosso is the first to give up. In great difficulty since the beginning of the weekend, his race stops already

at 15:16

Vettel in the lead (Tour 2)

The German, who had made the best start before this incident, widen the gap on Bottas. Verstappen is third while Raikkonen, who should be sanctioned, fourth. Hamilton is 16th but the British suffered a lot of damage and his car seems damaged.

at 15:13

Catastrophe for Hamilton!

Missed start by Lewis Hamilton! Vettel is already flying. The Briton found himself fighting with Raikkonen and the Finn hit him. It is now last! Unbelievable.

The drivers left the pits with their cars and came to settle on the starting grid. Conditions are ideal and warmth will play its part in this race.

The French in ambush

Rarely the Blues were as well placed on the starting grid. Fourth in Austria, Romain Grosjean confirmed his good intentions, despite a big shock Friday during the tests. The Haas driver will start eighth, just behind teammate Magnussen.
Esteban Ocan will start from tenth and ahead of his teammate Sergio Perez, twelfth. Finally, Pierre Gasly signed a modest 14th time driving his Toro Rosso.
Finally, he is not French but Monegasque but Charles Leclerc continues to surprise. The Sauber driver slammed the ninth fastest time on Saturday and can still hope to score points.

76th career pole for Hamilton

Already in his free practice (first in the first and third sessions), Lewis Hamilton blew a pole and to the beard of Ferrari. He was 44ths ahead of Vettel and a tenth Raikkonen. The Briton, at home, offers his 76th career pole. 6th at SIlverstone and fourth in a row. Dizzying. Bottas will start fourth while the Red Bull will occupy the third row.

Update on the various rankings

The Austrian Grand Prix has turned the tables in all rankings. The Mercedes (both cars abandoned last week) have lost big. Lewis Hamilton lost the leadership of the drivers' standings for just one point over Sebastian Vettel (146 points to 145). While Ferrari leads the standings with ten units ahead of Mercedes (247 against 237 points)

at 14:07

Hamilton is at home

The British seems untouchable at times on this route. The British holds the record of victories (5) with Jim Clark and Alain Prost. The most impressive is that he remains on four successes in a row with his Mercedes. So will he be able to make the five pbad? Answer in a little over two hours

Silverstone, a legendary circuit

This is a very popular track for pilots. Silverstone is eighteen turns including the famous "Copse", "Maggots" or "Stowe" .The English layout mixes slow turns and fast, sprinkled with a few straight lines that facilitate overtaking. this is the 68th time F1 has been packing in the East Midlands.
