F1 British Grand Prix live stream 2024 — how to watch race highlights and full replay, results

British Grand Prix Lewis Hamilton F1 Max Verstappen Lando Norris Silverstone (Geopolitical Entity) the British Grand Prix

Race winner Lewis Hamilton of Great Britain and Mercedes AMG F1 celebrates by flying the Union Jack flag from his race car's cockpit during the F1 British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

The U.K. may be the home of William Shakespeare, but not even the great bard could have written a tale better than the one that played out in the lead up to the 2024 British Grand Prix.

Three British drivers occupied the first three places on the Sunday's starting grid, with a Mercedes one-two (so something for the Germans to cheer, too!) of George Russell and Lewis Hamilton on the front row. Lando Norris was then joined by champion Max Verstappen behind them.

As well as being an amazing achievement for the British trio — who will be joined by teenager Oliver Bearman next year after just signing for Haas — it was fantastic news for any motor racing fan who is a little tired of Max Verstappen dominating the Drivers' Championship. He started from fourth and, although it's still extremely likely he'll drive to yet another title, some different faces at the front of the grid do help to keep things interesting.

Here we explain how to watch British Grand Prix streams from anywhere with a VPN — with full replay and highlight options explained. We won't give you any spoilers, other than a full race result at the bottom of this page.

British Grand Prix circuit

The 2024 British Grand Prix takes place over 52 laps of the 5.891-kilometre Silverstone Circuit on Sunday, July 7.

One of the iconic racing circuits in the world, Silverstone has enjoyed a spot on the Formula 1 calendar — not to mention a place in the heart of motorsport fans — for over 70 years.

Located at the border of Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire, Silverstone is known for its rich racing history and festival-like atmosphere.

The track is comprised of 18 bends including classic corners such as Luffield, Stowe and Abbey. Hometown hero Lewis Hamilton, winner of the British Grand Prix a record eight times, has a straight named in his honor.

The British Grand Prix starts at 3 p.m. local time and the unpredictable British weather often plays a part in the outcome of the race. Lewis Hamilton famously put on a wet-weather masterclass in 2008, winning the race by over a minute in the McLaren.

British Grand Prix FAQ

So, that's how to watch the British Grand Prix and all the race timings sorted. Now here's an F1 British GP FAQ for everything else you want to know about the upcoming race.

What were the 2024 British G.P. qualifying results?

There was high drama all the way through Saturday's qualifying, and George Russell continued the good times flowing from last week's win by flying to a Q3 time of 1:25.819. That left seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton in second, to make it all Mercedes up front.

Champion Max Verstappen had gone through wet gravel during the first session and couldn't get his damaged Red Bull to any better than fourth, sharing the second row with Lando Norris.

Ferrari's Charles Leclerc was unable to progress from a poor Q2, which leaves him starting 11th today. While Sergio Perez's disappointing season continues in the Red Bull, starting all the way back in 19th on the grid after spinning out during Q1.

What are the odds and predictions for the 2024 British GP?

Despite starting Sunday's race from fourth on the grid, Max Verstappen starts as joint favorite to top the podium. That's alongside Lando Norris at 2/1.

Pole sitter and last week's winner George Russell is 10/3, Lewis Hamilton 4/1 and Oscar Piastri 20/1.

What will the weather be like at the 2024 Britain Grand Prix?

It's a pretty gray and miserable weekend at Silverstone, with plenty of rain forecast and even the potential of thundery storms looming on raceday. There haven't been many wet G.P.s yet this season, so this will present a new test for the drivers.

When is the next race?

The 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix follows the British GP two weeks later on Sunday, July 21.

Who won the 2023 British Grand Prix?

Red Bull's Max Verstappen won the 2023 British GP, finishing with a time of 1:25:16.938. Lando Norris defeated Lewis Hamilton to second.

What is the lap record at the British Grand Prix?

Dutch driver Max Verstappen set the fastest lap time for the current Silverstone Circuit configuration at the 2020 British Grand Prix. Driving in the Red Bull, he posted a time of 1:27.097.

British Grand Prix winners

British driver Sir Lewis Hamilton holds the record for the most British Grand Prix wins with eight (2008, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020, 2021).

Britain's Jim Clark and France's Alain Prost have both the British GP five times. Nigel Mansell has four wins, while Jack Brabham, Niki Lauda and Michael Schumacher have three apiece.

Sir Stirling Moss became the first British driver to win the British Grand Prix in 1955. It was double celebration as the victory secured his first World Championship title.
