British Grand Prix: Lando Norris clinches emotional triumph in rain-soaked home race at Silverstone
The 25-year-old Briton made the most of McLaren teammate and series leader Oscar Piastri's mid-race misfortune, when he was given a 10-second penalty for slowing excessively while leading behind the safety car, to finish 6.8112 seconds clear. read more McLaren's Lando Norris steers his car during the British Grand Prix at the Silverstone Circuit in Northamptonshire, United Kingdom. Reuters An emotional Lando Norris boosted his world title bid in memorable fashion on Sunday when he drove to a commanding rain-splashed victory ahead of McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri in a chaotic British Grand Prix. The 25-year-old Briton made the most of series leader Piastri's mid-race misfortune, when he was given a 10-second penalty for slowing excessively while leading behind the safety car, to finish 6.8112 seconds clear. It was his first home win, his fourth win of the year and the eighth of his career, lifting him within eight points of the Australian. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Thank you, McLaren, thanks everyone,' said Norris. 'This is beautiful. Winning at home. This is a dream.' Nico Hulkenberg finished a stirring third for Sauber to claim the first podium appearance of his long career after 239 races. 'It feels good,' the veteran German said. 'A long time coming! But we had it in us and I had it in me somewhere. It's pretty surreal. All a bit crazy now.' Piastri was careful not to express his disappointment at the time penalty verdict. 'I want to congratulate Nico,' he said. 'That's the best story of the day – but I don't want to say much else to avoid getting into trouble.' Norris became the 13th different home winner of the British race. Lewis Hamilton took fourth for Ferrari ahead of Red Bull's four-time champion Max Verstappen. In an epic event run in extreme and changeable weather conditions, Pierre Gasly was sixth for Alpine, ahead of Aston Martin's Lance Stroll, Williams' Alex Albon, two-time champion Fernando Alonso in the second Aston Martin and Mercedes' George Russell. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The party can begin! 🥳 Lando Norris takes the chequered flag at his home race for the first time 🤩#F1 #BritishGP @McLarenF1 — Formula 1 (@F1) July 6, 2025 On a cool and wet summer's day in central England, the race began as the sun slanted through the clouds following torrential rain, Verstappen leading a controlled formation lap behind the safety car. In F1's 75th anniversary year, it was the 1,173rd race since the inaugural world championship event at Silverstone on May 13, 1950, and with the field so closely-packed few races had been more keenly anticipated. Russell and Leclerc gambled on switching to slick tyres before the start as Verstappen led the opening lap from his 44th pole ahead of Piastri, Norris and Hamilton. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD RB's' Liam Lawson went off at Stowe on lap one, triggering a virtual safety car (VSC), and Franco Colapinto retired his Alpine after stalling in the pit-lane. The race re-started on lap five with Piastri hounding Verstappen before a second VSC intervention when Gabriel Bortoleto abandoned his Sauber. It was stop-go stuff with everyone waiting for more rain. After chasing him, Piastri passed Verstappen at Stowe on lap eight to lead. Verstappen then ran off at Becketts and Norris passed him before they all pitted as the rain resumed. Blinded by spray Norris suffered a slow stop, giving second, behind Piastri, back to Verstappen, in appalling conditions that prompted another full safety car and wiped out the Australian's 13-second advantage. 'There's water in my visor, a huge splash and I can't see,' reported Leclerc after bouncing across the grass at Becketts. Hamilton was also blinded by spray, dropping to eighth, as the field cruised through puddles. Racing resumed on lap 18 amid plumes of spray before a third full safety car was deployed when RB rookie Isack Hadjar crashed into Antonelli's Mercedes at Copse. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The action re-started on lap 22 with a gripless Verstappen sliding off out of Copse as he spun, after Piastri had braked dramatically in front of him before the safety car peeled in. After a brief investigation, Piastri was given a 10-second penalty. By lap 26, and mid-race, Piastri led Norris before the Australian pitted to serve his time penalty, leaving Norris to soak up a memorable win.

F1: Norris wins rain-hit British GP thriller, cuts gap to Piastri in title race
SILVERSTONE: Lando Norris won a treacherous rain-hit British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday from his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri. Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg took third for the veteran German's first ever podium in 239 races. Briton Norris returned to a rapturous reception from his home fans as he moved to within eight points of Piastri in the drivers' standings. "It's beautiful, everything I ever dreamed of, this is everything I wanted to achieve, aside from winning the championship this is as good as it gets," beamed Norris. Piastri, who finished less than seven seconds behind Norris, threw away the win after the Australian was hit with a 10-second penalty for a safety car infringement. As last week's heatwave gave way to a more typical British summer's day -- spells of blue sky mixed with torrential showers -- drivers had to keep their wits about them with puddles forming on the track. And Norris emerged from the chaos all smiles as he added to his wins already this season in Austria, Monaco and Australia. Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton came in fourth ahead of Red Bull's Max Verstappen. Piastri fell foul of the stewards when braking heavily before the safety car peeled off, a decision that left Piastri feeling robbed. "I'm not going to say much, I don't want to get myself in trouble," he said in the post-race interview. "Apparently, you can't brake behind the safety car anymore," he added. For Hulkenberg, 37, this was a day to remember as he climbed the podium for the first time since joining the F1 grid way back in 2010. "Podium - P3 baby!" said his ecstatic race engineer on the team radio after he crossed the line. "I don't think I can comprehend what we've just done," replied the German. Pierre Gasly's Alpine took sixth, with Lance Stroll (Aston Martin), Alex Albon (Williams), Fernando Alonso in the other Aston and George Russell (Mercedes) rounding out the top 10.

Wimbledon 2025: Norrie sees off big-hitting Jarry in thriller to reach last eight
Briton Cameron Norrie came through a severe mental and physical examination from big-serving Chilean Nicolas Jarry to beat him 6-3 7-6(4) 6-7(7) 6-7(5) 6-3 in a classic match under the roof on Court One to reach the Wimbledon quarter-finals on Sunday. Norrie, the world 61, a semi-finalist in 2022 and now the last home player left in the tournament, scrambled brilliantly to snatch the first set with what proved to be the only break of the first four. He took the second on a tiebreak and had match point in the third-set tiebreak, only for towering Chilean world number 143 Jarry to save it and force a fourth set, which he sealed with an ace. Jarry, who came through qualifying, banged down 46 aces to take his tournament-leading tally to 111, but Norrie returned superbly to break early in the decider, save three break points in the next game and close out victory after four and a half hours.
