Great Britain

Silverstone tested the field in slippery, damp conditions. Sargeant claimed pole on home-adjacent soil. The Sprint, run on a wet but drying track, started behind the safety car and quickly became a Doohan demonstration. He made early progress, broke clear and won by under a second for a maiden victory, with Iwasa second and setting fastest lap, and Fittipaldi third. Sargeant could manage only seventh from the reverse grid. The Feature was defined by a frightening opening-lap accident: Nissany ran wide and made contact with Hauger, who was launched over a kerb, went airborne and landed on Nissany's car, both out on the spot under a safety car. From the front, Sargeant led every lap to take a commanding win. Pourchaire vaulted from fourth to second at the start and closed to within half a second before Sargeant rebuilt his margin, finishing 1.5 seconds clear. Lawson took third from fifth as others made poor getaways, with Drugovich recovering only to fourth after losing ground at the start. Sargeant's victory lifted him to third in the standings, but Drugovich's steady haul kept the Brazilian comfortably in the championship lead.
