He also ended Hamilton's streak of four Silverstone wins.

Mercedes has won only one of the last five races - its worst run of results since 2013, the last year before V6 hybrid engine regulations were introduced.

Vettel not only won the race, but he also set the 34th fastest lap of his career.

Kimi Raikkonen has now scored the same number of podiums as Alonso - 97.

He has now scored 27 podiums since his last win, making him the holder of an unwanted record.

Daniel Ricciardo, Red Bull Racing RB14, makes a pit stop

Daniel Ricciardo finished fifth at Silverstone, continuing one peculiar trend in 2018 - either he wins the race or doesn't finish on the podium at all.

British GP marked the 200th race in which Fernando Alonso has scored points. He became only the second driver to cross that milestone after Michael Schumacher (221).
