Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) won the British Grand Prix ahead of Valtteri Bottas (Mercedes) and the Ferrari of Kimi Räikkönen. The Scuderia Finn, however, encountered a problem with his left front tire in the final laps, forcing him to return to the pits.

Overtaken by his teammate Sebastian Vettel, Iceman took advantage of Vettel's puncture on the penultimate lap to get back on the podium ahead of the Red Bulls of Verstappen and Ricciardo. Nico Hülkenberg places his Renault R.S. 17 in sixth position ahead of Sebastian Vettel, ultimately seventh. The top 10 is completed by the Force India of Ocon and Pérez and the Williams of Massa.
