Lewis Hamilton made an impressive start to his first home British Grand Prix weekend as a Ferrari driver to outpace the McLarens in first practice.
Nine-time Silverstone winner Hamilton, yet to finish on the podium at Ferrari approaching the season's halfway mark this weekend, found an immediate groove around the circuit he has enjoyed more success at than any other to set an initial pace of 1:26.892, outpacing fellow Briton Lando Norris by 0.023.
It is the first time Hamilton has topped a practice session so far this season.
