Lewis Hamilton says he wants to get Silverstone "rocking" with another home victory in the British Grand Prix.
The 2014 world champion won his home race for only the second time last season, coming through from sixth on the grid to take victory as team-mate Nico Rosberg retired. Having been beaten by Rosberg in Austria, Hamilton admits he needs to bounce back and is fuelled by the elation he felt when winning last year.
"I don't feel like I ever really reached my peak in Austria," Hamilton said. "It wasn't the smoothest of weekends for me - so to come away with P2 wasn't a disaster in the circumstances.
"Silverstone, though... that's different. I can't describe the feeling I had last year - lifting that trophy again in front of the sea of fans on pit straight after so many years and after a tough start to the weekend too. It's something that will always stay with me and nothing less than the same again will do.
"I'm lucky enough to have fans all around the world - but winning in front of your home crowd is something else. We have a fantastic car this year - even better than in 2014 - and it should suit this track, so I'll be going all out to make the most of it. The guys back at the factories deserve to see a big home result and I want to see Silverstone absolutely rocking at the chequered flag!"
