The reimagined F1 maintains the sacred proportions of the original while evolving its surface language into something more contemporary. The long hood remains, a visual reminder that this car houses a naturally aspirated engine positioned just behind the driver.

When I was younger I was frustrated, I was getting angry, especially when I was at Williams and finishing second to last every weekend. I was pissed off. I worked my whole life to get to F1 and now I'm at the back, and doing nothing. So I had to work on that, how do I deal with that and I came to the realisation that I just need to focus on my job.

Silverstone, which hosts more than 1.5 million visitors each year, has engaged Boldyn Networks to deliver a major connectivity upgrade seeing a new, permanent high-capacity 5G mobile network.

In the short term, expectations are brutally realistic, but this is still a team intent on making noise from day one. That intent will be made clear when Cadillac unveils the livery of its first F1 car during a Super Bowl commercial Sunday. Such a move is a statement and arrival aimed as much at mainstream America as at a paddock that, for years, questioned whether the brand belonged on the grid at all.

Brooklands was built in the Surrey countryside and was the brainchild of Hugh and Ethel Fortescue Locke King. When it opened in 1907, it was the world's first purpose-built, banked motor racing circuit. With road racing banned on the British mainland, it quickly became the country's motorsport capital, as well as home to equally intrepid early aviators.

We've been involved with the business for five years now. It's an incredible brand with lots of legacy and great values, and there's a long-term plan here. That was supported by two things last year: Carlos joining us, who obviously saw the opportunity when it came to wanting to win; and finishing fifth. And that just supported our story of going back to the top.

I'm always very much in my own head and very thoughtful about myself. It's always been about proving it to myself. That's the thing inside I've always had to do. Then when it clicks and I reassure myself, that's when things go even better. I've gained confidence from last year. Just the fact I know I can do it means I know I can do it again. 100%.

The vibration into the chassis is causing a few reliability problems: mirrors falling off, tail lights falling off, all that sort of thing, which we are having to address. Fernando [Alonso] is of the feeling that he can't do more than 25 laps consecutively before he risks permanent nerve damage to his hands.

In the 2021 Italian GP, Lewis Hamilton nearly had his head crushed when Max Verstappen's car literally climbed on top of his, with the car's bottom grazing past his helmet and onto the protective Halo. Later on, Toto Wolff of the Mercedes team breathed a sigh of relief, also reflecting on how much he fought against the addition of the Halo to the F1 car design. This isn't the first time a Halo has saved a life. Leclerc's helmet showed the battle scars of Fernando Alonso's tire from a similar incident in the Belgian GP in 2018.

Instead, LoveFrom appears to have channeled Ferrari interiors from the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, with a retro simplicity that combines clear round gauges with brushed aluminum. Forget the capacitive panels that so frustrated me in the Ferrari 296 -here, there are physical buttons and rocker switches that seem free of the crash protection surrounds that Mini was forced to use.
