SILVERSTONE, UK — Lando Norris won a wet and wild British Grand Prix at Silverstone, where his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri lost a race he had dominated due to a penalty for an incident involving polesitter Max Verstappen.

According to the network, ESPN2’s telecast of the British Grand Prix averaged 1.5 million viewers, a 19% gain over last year’s telecast and the largest audience ever for the race on U.S. television. That viewership peaked at 1.8 million right around the time Norris took the checkered flag.

Lando Norris won a chaotic British Grand Prix on Sunday, navigating a rain-hit race punctuated by several safety cars and taking advantage of his teammate Oscar Piastri incurring a 10-second penalty as one of those safety cars pulled off the track.
