After a week without a race weekend, it’s time for the next double header. Before the drivers go to Austria next weekend, a race weekend in Great Britain is on the program this weekend. Viaplay will also be present at Silverstone during the race weekend. Due to the time difference, the broadcasting times are different.
With 46 points ahead of Sergio Perez and 49 points ahead of Charles Leclerc, Max Verstappen, who has won five of the last six races, will start the race weekend in Silverstone in good shape. The Dutchman will try to take revenge for his race last season, when he retired after a collision with Lewis Hamilton in Copse.
Friday
The race weekend at Viaplay starts on Friday afternoon at 13:55, when the broadcast starts around the first free practice session in Silverstone. From 14:00 to 15:00, Allard Kalff and Sebastiaan Bleekemolen or Nelson Valkenburg and Melroy Heemskerk will provide commentary for the first session of the race weekend. At 17:00 it is then time for the second free practice, with the same commentary duo as during VT1. This session lasts from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Friday will close at 20:30 with Studio F1: Silverstone Shakedown. Amber Brantsen talks you through this and we look back on Friday with analysts.
