‘I trained like an F1 driver at Silverstone and realised just how fit they really are’

Formula One is back at Silverstone this weekend as the biggest stars in motorsport compete in the British Grand Prix.

Whilst it is all about Max Verstappen in the race for the World Championship, home favourites Lewis Hamilton, George Russell, Lando Norris and Alex Albon are amongst the drivers hoping to chase him down.

Drivers will race around the 5.891km circuit at an average speed of around 150mph. They’ll hit top speeds in excess of 200mph and complete 52 laps in Sunday’s race, lasting approximately 90 minutes.
