Randorris has won back-to-back to claim his first home victory at the British Grand Prix, affected by the chaotic rain that marked half-hearted points in the 2025 F1 season.
Here are the biggest winners and losers of an action-packed F1 race at Silverstone…
Winner – Randorris
Norris recorded an emotional and memorable victory in the Maiden’s House, closing what was an exceptional week for Briton.
Two wins in the bounce saw Norris see what had been a 22-point deficit for Piastri before the Austrian Grand Prix to just eight. This was a huge seven days when Norris began to regain some important momentum with two best circuits and put some pressure on the piastry.
Norris may not have been at his best in Silverstone in the Qualifying or Grand Prix itself, but he had no luck getting from a Piastri penalty, but he was one of the few error-free drivers at the right time and in extremely difficult conditions.

Loser – Max Verstappen and Red Bull
After a spectacular qualifying lap to take the impact pole position, it became a tough British Grand Prix for Max Verstappen. Red Bull’s low-down force gambling backfired by the wet, bringing RB21 back on track throughout the first stint, leaving him in battle to pray for a much faster McLaren.
Verstappen’s race was unraveled with a rare mistake when he spun out of the top 10 in a safety car reboot. He recovered to fifth place with the checkered flag, but it was another weekend that he forgot to look even more like a Bleaker for the Dutchman hoping to win the fifth world title.
Heading for a three-week break, Verstappen has enough to reflect on his future, including his continued topic of focus in Mercedes’ continued pursuit.
Winners – Nico Halkenberg and Sauber
Nico Furkenberg finally finished his unnecessary F1 podium record by taking third in the UK’s Grand Prix.
In his 239th start, the 37-year-old German finally took the podium for the first time, handing over to Thorber to the first podium since the 2012 Japan Grand Prix.
Hulkenberg drove brilliantly in tricky conditions, keeping Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton at bay on a closed lap, securing Sauber a 6-point and 18 points to fifth-placed Williams.

Loser – Oscar Piastri
For the first time this season, we witnessed an angry piastry. For the majority of Sunday’s 52-lap race, the championship leaders appeared to be in control, passing the struggling barstappen and opening the dominant buffer in front of the safety car.
The costly penalty for unstable driving on the restart ended up winning Piastri.
Piastri is currently losing streaks to Norris in a row and losing recent momentum. Do some crude weekends reflect that the usual nonexistent piastry has begun to lean under pressure, or is it just a blip?
Winner – Pierre Guthry
Pierre Guthrie enjoyed a great weekend at the British Grand Prix. First, the magical qualifying lap secured the Frenchman a third quarter look and a top 10 starting position.
Then at the Grand Prix on Sunday, the Alpine Driver kept pace with Hamilton’s Ferrari in his first stint, running consistently in the top seven. Lancestrol’s final lap of opportunism at Aston Martin gave Guthrie a much needed boost to his struggling alpine team, claiming a proper P6.
Loser – Charles Leclerc
Charles Leclerc’s race was ruined by gambling to switch to slick tires at the end of the formation lap. It proved to be a wrong decision and saw Monegasque fall from the top 10 competition. Leclerc fought back through orders. This only disappointed him with a few off-track adventures during a crude race that had the worst weekend of the season.

Winner – Alex Albon
After both Williams drivers were eliminated in the second quarter during annoying qualifying, Alex Albon criticised his team’s decisions and sought a review. 24 hours later, Albon’s sentiment would have performed a full 180 as he advanced to the point on a strong drive to the eighth. Williams marked a welcome return to the top 10 after scoring lonely points from the previous three rounds.
Loser – Mercedes
Twelve months after Hamilton’s fairytale victory at Silverstone, Mercedes endured the nightmare British Grand Prix.
George Russell and Mercedes abandoned a solid top-five results (and podiums) by pitting the formation laps, creating a “suicide” switch softly when the truck was too wet, and creating a “suicide” switch on soft that leads to Russell’s huge, fast spin.
Russell’s point on the 10th was that Mercedes could gather on a truly miserable Sunday as Kimi Antoneri retired after being hit from behind by Isack Hadjar.
Loser – Haas

Two Haas cars were blown away
While they watched their rivals scored big, Haas once again missed the perfect opportunity to claim big results in a chaotic, unpredictable race, as Oliver Baerman and Esteban Ocon managed only 11th and 12th in the operational poor race. To rub salt into the wound, Bearman and Ocon collide with each other.
