F1 starting grid: What is the grid order for the 2024 British Grand Prix?

The starting grid for the 2024 British Grand Prix has been established after the F1 qualifying round.

The F1 starting grid has been put in place following qualifying for the British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Saturday.

Prior to the session, it was already established that Pierre Gasly of Alpine would be starting from the back of the grid due to a complete power unit change. However, with the wet conditions at Silverstone, many decisions were yet to be made as we headed into qualifying.

The first quarter started with the drivers using intermediate tyres, due to a mix of weather conditions – sunshine in one part of the circuit and looming dark clouds in another, indicating possible rain. Valtteri Bottas was the first driver to venture out on slicks.

But the red flag came out for Sergio Perez at Copse, who beached himself in the gravel as he got himself onto the wet part of the track, ran wide and spun around backwards. He waited to try and get pushed back on track, but wasn’t allowed back in, but that was not to be.

The threat of more rain at the end of Q1 led to the drivers lining up to quickly get back on track and set lap times. As the track dried up, Perez swiftly fell to the back of the field.

Q2 saw the track return to more representative conditions, but there was a significant loss to the session as Charles Leclerc was knocked out at the last moment by the Aston Martin of Lance Stroll, with conditions still improving all the time.

The Q3 session was set up to be intriguing, with both Astons, Alex Albon’s Williams, and Nico Hulkenberg from Haas making it to the top 10. This was despite Max Verstappen carrying damage from his own excursion into the Copse gravel during Q1 – though he was still able to continue.

In Q3’s first runs at Silverstone, the top three were all British: George Russell, Lando Norris, and Lewis Hamilton. However, there was still another run to go which could potentially change the standings.

Norris had to withdraw from his final lap, but Russell maintained his lead against Hamilton’s faster lap to secure his first-ever home pole position at Silverstone. This also resulted in an all-British top three at Silverstone for Sunday’s race.
