Stat Attack: Great Britain
Michele Merlino investigates the records and compiles the stats ahead of the British Grand Prix
Great Britain personal scoreboard
• Jenson Button will start his 180th race, reaching Ralf Schumacher at 14th on the all-time list. He has never led a lap or finished on the podium in his home race. He's also failed to qualify in the top 10 six times in 10 years.
• Lewis Hamilton sacrificed his race strategy to take pole in his first British Grand Prix, eventually finishing third. In 2008, he won by more than a minute from Nick Heidfeld. Last year he could only finish 16th. Hamilton has also won at Silverstone in GP2 (twice) and in Formula Renault.
