Lewis Hamilton, Ferrari (P4) – 8/10
A strong outing for Sir Lewis, who came alive in the second half of the race as his Ferrari found its sweet spot on the tyres. He was held up behind Leclerc during a crucial phase, which cost him precious time. Hamilton felt good on his rubber, but staying out slightly too long ultimately prevented a podium challenge.
George Russell, Mercedes (P3) – 8/10
Despite a poor getaway at the start, Russell somehow found himself back on the podium when it mattered. Running an alternative pit strategy left him exposed to late pressure from the Ferraris, but George defended stubbornly to cross the line third. A gritty, opportunistic drive that yielded maximum points for Brackley.
