On Wednesday afternoon, Formula 1 announced a new contract for Silverstone to host the British Grand Prix. The deal ensures the sport will continue to visit the Silverstone circuit until at least 2024. With the track being a favourite amongst fans, drivers and teams, we thought we'd share their reactions to the news.
SportPesa Racing Point is very pleased to be returning to their home circuit. The team is based at the circuit, and it's no surprise that they love the news about Silverstone's contract.
It's close to everyone involved in Formula 1 with all of the history made at the East Midlands venue. But it's that little bit closer to those involved and McLaren will be hoping for some more success in the next five years.
Of course Mercedes will be pleased, they've won five of the last six races at Silverstone!

And Ferrari, the winners of the first ever Formula 1 Grand Prix at Silverstone back in 1950!
