Lando Norris' nose was split open during post-race celebrations at Silverstone on Sunday (6 July). The McLaren driver, who achieved his first Grand Prix victory over the weekend, was at the pit wall ready to celebrate when the freak accident happened.

The sight of Lewis Hamilton, his tires kicking up a tail of spray as he sped through the rain toward victory at the British Grand Prix in 2008, stayed with the 8-year-old Norris, who was watching on TV. On Sunday, Norris got his own win in a thrilling wet British GP — also involving Hamilton — in front of the British crowd.

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.
