Charles Leclerc finished fastest in a rain-hit final practice session for the British Grand Prix. The Ferrari driver set the pace in the dry running before heavy rain arrived at Silverstone. Williams’ Alex Albon took second place, one spot ahead of Aston Martin driver Fernando Alonso, with Pierre Gasly fourth for Alpine and Lewis Hamilton fifth. World champion Max Verstappen, quickest in both sessions at the Northamptonshire venue on Friday, was eighth. Although the concluding one-hour running before qualifying started in the dry, it was not long before the forecast rain arrived. In the initial slick conditions, Leclerc was the fastest out of the traps, seeing off Albon by a tenth. Hamilton finished only 15th on Friday and said there was something wrong with his Mercedes. But the seven-time world champion moved closer to the front on Saturday morning, finishing half-a-second off the pace. Heavy showers could continue throughout the day with qualifying due to get under way at 3pm.

Russian president Vladimir Putin said that if necessary Russia would use weapons with depleted uranium in response to reports that the United States would supply such weapons to Ukraine. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier on Tuesday that the US was set to approve depleted uranium tank rounds for Kyiv. Depleted uranium is a dense by-product left over when uranium is enriched for use in nuclear reactors or nuclear weapons. The rounds retain some radioactive properties, but cannot generate a nuclear reaction as a nuclear weapon would. In March 2023, the UK said it would supply armour piercing munitions containing depleted uranium to Ukraine to help destroy Russian tanks. Putin falsely claimed that these weapons had a “nuclear component.” Meanwhile, Russia launched a “massive” attack overnight on the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih, killing at least ten people and wounding 28 others. “As of 1300 (1000 GMT) 10 people have been killed,” city mayor Oleksandr Vilkul said in a Telegram post, adding that another person was under the rubble and a further 28 were injured.
