Aston Martin (five times), Mercedes (twice), Ferrari (twice) and now McLaren. If you remove the incredible Red Bull RB19 from the 10 Formula 1 races held so far in 2023, there would be quite a few different winners and a fascinating title contest. And Norris would now be a grand prix victor after an impressive drive in front of his home fans at Silverstone.
As Alex Kalinauckas shows in our in-depth report, the British GP was arguably the best race of the season so far, helped by the unexpected turn of speed from McLaren and its latest updates, which Jake Boxall-Legge explains on our Tech page. But Verstappen and Red Bull remain firmly out front, with the team set to break McLaren’s record of 11 consecutive victories if it can continue its momentum at the Hungaroring later this month.
