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.

Before the session, it was already established that Pierre Gasly of Alpine would start at the back of the grid due to a full power unit change. However, qualifying at Silverstone, which was marked by wet conditions, had many outcomes yet to be determined.

The first quarter began with the drivers using intermediate tires. The weather was inconsistent, with the sun shining over one part of the circuit, while dark clouds loomed elsewhere, indicating a possible rain shower. 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 drivers to rush and set lap times on the track as quickly as possible. However, as the track dried up, Perez quickly 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.

This intriguing Q3 session was set up with both Astons and Alex Albon’s Williams making it to the top 10, along with Haas driver Nico Hulkenberg. Max Verstappen, despite sustaining damage from a trip to the gravel at Copse in Q1, was able to continue.

In Q3’s first runs at Silverstone, the top three spots were all taken by British drivers George Russell, Lando Norris, and Lewis Hamilton. However, with another run still to come, the standings could change.

Norris had to abandon his final lap, but Russell managed to outpace Hamilton’s faster lap and secured his first-ever home pole position at Silverstone. He also secured an all-British top three for Sunday’s race at Silverstone.
