F1 British Grand Prix 2026:Lewis Hamilton thanks fans for Silverstone 'dream'

Lewis Hamilton took pole position for the 2026 British Grand Prix sprint race at Silverstone, dominating all three segments of Friday's sprint qualifying session. The 41-year-old seven-time world champion is chasing history this weekend, as a victory would make him the first driver in F1 history to win ten grands prix at a single circuit. Fellow British drivers Lando Norris qualified sixth, George Russell fifth, and rookie Avrid Lindblad tenth for the sprint race.
