After setting the fastest time in qualifying to start from first place for the sprint race on Saturday, the Mercedes driver conceded the pole position to Max Verstappen.<\/p>\n<p>Coming back with a vengeance for Sunday&#8217;s race, Hamilton was aggressive in the first turns and eventually caused Verstappen to retire following an accident in Copse corner.<\/p>\n<h2>Hamilton grateful to the British public<\/h2>\n<p>Penalized by 10 seconds in the pit lane after the restart, Hamilton came back on track like a man possessed, overtaking one driver after another until he managed to pass Charles Leclerc, who had been leading for practically the entire race, just 2 laps from the end.<\/p>\n<p>The physically experienced reigning world champion returned to the microphones on his superb race: &#8220;I am happy to win a new race here at home, in front of the best fans in the world whom I thank once again for their support. It was really physically challenging today but I am grateful to the fans, my team, and to Valtteri (Bottas) who allowed me to achieve another success here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We have managed to find performance in the car<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The winner of the Grand Prix then reflected on his accident at the start of the race which caused his rival Max Verstappen to retire: &#8220;It&#8217;s not the way I wanted to start the race, I tried to be measured to overtake Max at the beginning but he was quite aggressive. I was next to him but he didn&#8217;t leave me enough space. In the end, I served the penalty and didn&#8217;t give up until the end, I hope the crowd appreciated it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Aiming for an 8th record world title, Hamilton believes that nothing is over for the world championship: &#8220;I have given everything in recent weeks to find performance on the car, I am proud of how everyone is working in the team and we will fight until the end to catch up with Red Bull.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After playing &#8220;God save the Queen&#8221; again for the first time since the Spanish Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton leaves with his 8th victory at the Silverstone circuit but above all only 8 points behind Verstappen before the Hungarian Grand Prix in 2 weeks.
