Which drivers will take risks during the Sprint Race at Silverstone?

This weekend will be the first race weekend with a sprint race on the program. This not only has an impact on the entertainment and schedule of a race weekend but also on the potential performance of different drivers.

The Race analyzes in an article, we'll see which drivers in the current field can set the sprint race on fire. Literally and figuratively. The first name that immediately stands out is that of Valtteri Bottas. The Finn is normally not the driver who stands out, but according to the Race this could be different during the sprint race.

In addition to the names of Fernando Alonso and Charles Leclerc, youngsters Yuki Tsunoda and George Russell have also been mentioned. The young Japanese is still a bit uncontrolled at times. "Yuki just can't help it. For every 'I will learn from this and not push so hard next time' there is another incident."

Russell, of course, is driving a home race and may also have his seat at Mercedes to fight for. "Imagine the roar of his home crowd at every overtake - to Priory, side-by-side to Luffield? Or an attack at Vale, tyres on the point of blocking? Or a brave move by Copse."

We'll see next weekend who the sprint race is made for and who is going to stand out in a negative sense. Because too much risk means the consequences for the race the following day can be quite significant.
