Summary
Silverstone’s pre-race grid walk turned into a celebrity-heavy lap as Martin Brundle stopped by Lewis Capaldi, Phil Foden, Hannah Waddingham, Chris Hoy, Nigel Mansell and others before the British Grand Prix.
Christian Horner delivered the sharpest news line, saying he was at the track only as a fan but adding “never say never” when asked about a return to Formula One.
Chris Hoy said a clay-pigeon shooting event had raised £1 million for his cancer charity, while Foden used the appearance to back England, saying “we’ll get the job done.”
The walk also mixed paddock color with racing context: Liam Lawson joked there could be Lego left on track after karting, Nick Hamilton praised brother Lewis, and Mansell said Hamilton was doing “a cracking job” with Ferrari.
