A full crowd has been roaring at Silverstone and the weekend got off to an entertaining start.
The British Grand Prix is one of the most classic races of Formula 1 history and Silverstone was the track that hosted the first-ever World Championship race back in 1950, with Giuseppe Farina winning for Alfa Romeo. The following year, Ferrari won at Silverstone with José Froilán González in what was the first win in the Scuderia history, 70 years ago.
