WATCH: The moment Hamilton sealed British GP victory with late pass on Leclerc
Share
Lewis Hamilton has now won his home Grand Prix eight times – but this will surely rank as the most dramatic of his victories at Silverstone. After colliding with title rival Max Verstappen on the first lap – and subsequently being handed a 10-second penalty for the incident – Hamilton hunted down long-time leader Charles Leclerc before passing the Ferrari man for the lead with just three laps to go.
Even more dramatically, Hamilton's move on Leclerc was almost a carbon copy of the overtaking attempt that went wrong on Verstappen, which sent the Dutchman into the barriers at the 180mph Copse Corner.
This time, however, the bold move paid off – as you can see in the video above...
