What happened: Lewis Hamilton hopes to work with Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc to challenge polesitter Kimi Antonelli at Silverstone. Leclerc starts second, with Hamilton third behind Antonelli.

Why it matters: Ferrari has two cars positioned to pressure Antonelli through strategy and the opening-lap fight. Cooperation could improve its chances of converting strong grid positions into a British Grand Prix victory.

By the numbers: Antonelli starts P1, ahead of Leclerc in P2 and Hamilton in P3. It is Antonelli's fifth pole position of the 2026 season.

What to watch: Watch whether Leclerc and Hamilton coordinate strategy and challenge Antonelli into the first corner. Pit-stop timing could determine whether Ferrari's numerical advantage matters.
