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

Following the qualifying round for the 2024 British Grand Prix, the starting grid for F1 has been established.

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

Before the session began, it was already established that Pierre Gasly of Alpine would be starting at the back of the grid due to a complete power unit change. However, with the wet conditions at Silverstone, there was still much to be determined during qualifying.

The first quarter kicked off with the drivers using intermediate tyres. The weather conditions were unpredictable with the sun shining over one part of the track and dark clouds looming elsewhere, indicating a possible rain. Meanwhile, 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.

Threats of more rain at the end of Q1 led to drivers lining up to quickly return to the track and set lap times. As the track started drying 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.

This established an interesting Q3 session. Both Astons and Alex Albon of Williams managed to make it to the top 10, including Haas driver Nico Hulkenberg. Meanwhile, Max Verstappen sustained damage after an incident in the gravel at Copse during Q1, but he was able to continue.

In Q3’s first runs at Silverstone, George Russell, Lando Norris, and Lewis Hamilton, all British drivers, secured the top three positions. However, there’s another run coming up that could potentially change this scenario.

Norris had to abandon his final lap, yet Russell managed to resist a quicker lap from Hamilton, securing his first-ever home pole at Silverstone. This achievement also resulted in an all-British top three at Silverstone for Sunday’s race.
