Formula 1 returns to Silverstone for Round 12 of the F1 season.
The British Grand Prix 2025 features practice sessions on Friday, July 4, qualifying on Saturday, July 5, before Sunday’s 52-lap race around the 5.891-kilometer Silverstone Circuit. With the three-way championship battle heating up mid-season, this home race promises compelling action.
Lando Norris will be looking to gain a first victory at Silverstone after reasserting himself on the Championship with a narrow 2.7-second victory over teammate Oscar Piastri in Austria last week.
Piastri tops the 2025 F1 Drivers’ Championship after the first eleven rounds, with McLaren leading Mercedes at the top of the Constructors table, but Ferrari are finding surprising pace. Nine-time British GP winner Lewis Hamilton is listed at +1600 in this week’s F1 odds as he looks to capture his first win in his debut season in the Fezza.
