What happened: The British Grand Prix weekend continues with sprint Saturday at Silverstone Circuit. The sprint-format day puts extra track action on the schedule before Sunday's main event at the historic British venue.

Why it matters: Sprint weekends compress the running and raise the stakes, with points available before the Grand Prix itself. Silverstone's sprint day follows a weekend that opened with a sole practice session on Friday, leaving teams with limited preparation time before competitive sessions began.

What to watch: Attention turns to the remainder of Saturday's running and then to Sunday's British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
