With 207 points ahead of Ferrari, McLaren leads the Constructors' Championship on a lone horse, seemingly unstoppable. The British are on the fast track to their second consecutive title, led by a driver duo that has taken eight of the first eleven wins of the season.
Next stop in their unchallenged conquest, Great Britain and the Silverstone circuit, the cradle of Formula 1, which will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the discipline on this occasion. A victory on the land of Lewis Hamilton, the current winner and record holder for success at Silverstone, would inevitably have a particular taste for Lando Norris, one of four British players on the grid with Hamilton, Russell and Bearman.
