After a quite fantastic F1 Live event in London, the British GP is back, though by the sounds of it not for very long.

We approach the half-way point in a thrilling new era of Formula 1. New cars, new faces at the top and new championship battles. Much of the story of the season to date has been about the titanic duel between Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel.
