British GP: Qualifying - RE-CAP & RESULTS


BRITISH GP - QUALIFYING - RE-CAP & RESULTS

    Lewis Hamilton took pole position ahead of his home grand prix, while both Williams drivers found themselves spinning out of Q1. Hartley was unable to participate in Qualifying due to work still being done to his damaged Toro Rosso, after a horrifying crash in FP3. 

HOW IT WORKS:

Q1 = 18 minutes. All cars allowed to go out. At the end of the session, the five slowest are eliminated.
Q2 = 15 minutes. The remaining cars go out. At the end of the session, the five slowest are eliminated.
Q3 = 12 minutes. Final 10 cars go out. The final order at the end of the session is how the grid will line up. Fastest car starts from Pole Position.
