With the British GP up next, check out all the latest details on the practice, qualifying and race sessions below.
LATEST - Verstappen On Pole Following Sprint Qualifying
In a complete diversion from the usual method of qualifying, the British GP saw the introduction of the 'Sprint' format. Used in F2 racing, a usual qualifying event took place yesterday to determine the grid placement for today's race.
The 17 lap sprint race then determined the starting order for the full length race tomorrow. For winning the Sprint, Max also earns 3 chapionship points. Hamilton and Bottas earn 2 and 1 point respectively for finishing 2nd and 3rd.
Current Driver Standings

Hamilton is still well in the race but sits 32 points behind the Red Bull driver.
Sergio Perez currently sits in third place, with Lando Norris and Valtteri Bottas battling it out too.
