Norris navigates Silverstone spray to claim coveted prize
The Guardian
|July 07, 2025
This year's British Grand Prix already had a place in history as the 75th anniversary of Silverstone hosting the first Formula One race in 1950.
Now it will be remembered as a milestone and career high for Lando Norris, a maiden win at his home race and the victory he has long coveted.
The British GP has thrown up swathes of superlative races in those 75 seasons and this year's earned its place among them. Under gunmetal grey skies and lowering clouds an afternoon of incident and drama unfolded, of fortune and fury, and for one driver a moment of finally discharging a particularly unwanted monkey.
Norris has wanted this one since he began his F1 career in 2019. There were no tears as he took the flag, but just the sheer unbridled and enthusiastic joy that has endeared the 25-year-old to so many fans, not least the 10,000 who had packed out his dedicated Landostand at Stowe corner.
