Due to the introduction of the sprint qualifying race, the British Grand Prix will once again make Formula One history: the position on the grid will be decided by the result of the 100 km race. If everything goes according to plan, it will involve 25 to 30 minutes of pure entertainment packed with overtaking and heavy braking.
According to Brembo technicians, the Silverstone Circuit falls into the category of those tracks that make little demand on the brakes. On a scale of 1 to 5, it earned a 2 on the difficulty index - lower than all the other tracks in the current Formula 1 World Championship schedule.
