Lewis Hamilton's victory at the 2024 British Grand Prix ended a three-year win drought, securing him a record-breaking ninth win at Silverstone. During the race, Hamilton received a pivotal "shut-up" radio order from his engineer, Bono, which signaled his readiness to claim victory. The win also disrupted Max Verstappen's dominance, securing Hamilton's position at the top of the driver standings.

Among the celebrities in attendance at the British Grand Prix were Brad Pitt and his girlfriend Ines de Ramon, who were seen holding hands at the event. Gordon Ramsay and his daughter Holly were also present at the rainy final day of the race.

In the realm of social media buzz, a movie trailer featuring Brad Pitt and Lewis Hamilton was making waves, further adding to the excitement surrounding Hamilton's recent triumph. The event also saw singer Brian May alongside TV presenter Phillip Schofield, adding to the star-studded gathering.

However, the notoriety of the British Grand Prix did come with some controversies, including criticisms over the price of beer at the venue. Additionally, amidst the glitz and glamour, Williams F1 team principal Vowles hinted at a potential mid-season switch if driver Sargeant's performance did not improve.

Ultimately, the British Grand Prix proved memorable not only in the realm of sports but also as a star-studded event that brought together celebrities, fans, and drivers, marking a significant milestone in Lewis Hamilton's career and the overall Formula 1 season.
