The sight of Lewis Hamilton, his tires kicking up a tail of spray as he sped through the rain toward victory at the British Grand Prix in 2008, stayed with the 8-year-old Norris, who was watching on TV. On Sunday, Norris got his own win in a thrilling wet British GP -- also involving Hamilton -- in front of the British crowd.

McLaren's Lando Norris took his first home victory in a chaotic, dramatic, rain-affected British Grand Prix. Norris benefited from a 10-second penalty handed to team-mate Oscar Piastri, who was found to have driven erratically during a restart after one of two safety-car periods at Silverstone.

Lando Norris says winning the British Grand Prix is “everything I’ve ever wanted to achieve” after taking his first home Formula 1 victory. In a dramatic, rain-hit race interrupted by two safety car periods, Norris emerged as the leader with seven laps to go after McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri had to serve a 10-second time penalty.
