The British Grand Prix was bonkers -- and it could have been even better

SILVERSTONE, U.K -- What. A. Race.

The British Grand Prix had more of less everything you could want from an F1 race, even though a mid-race Safety Car neutralised a lot of the drama. The fight for the lead was ruined by it, but before we talk about that it's only fair we dwell on the bit of the race which will surely stand the test of time as a classic piece of the sport's history.

A great race that could have been even better: The home fans got the result they wanted at Silverstone, but missed out on what promised to be one of the best battles of the season between championship rivals Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas.
