Worth Watching Score

6.0

This wasn’t a classic, but it had its moments. Norris grabbed the lead at the start and lit up Silverstone before Verstappen took control, and a mid-race Safety Car bunched things up for a great tyre-offset duel as Hamilton’s softs hunted Norris’s hards. The win was never really in doubt, with most of the 46 overtakes coming from a lively midfield and the 3 DNFs adding little drama. Worth it for McLaren’s resurgence and the Norris–Hamilton fight; skip if you want a battle for victory.
