Runaway leaders McLaren expect old rivals Ferrari to be fighting them for victory at the British Grand Prix after a strong showing by Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton in Friday practice.
Lando Norris was top of the timesheets overall but Hamilton, record nine-times winner at Silverstone, was quickest in the first session and both Ferraris beat McLarens championship leader Oscar Piastri in the second.
It is still early in the weekend, and weather conditions can change, but McLaren duly took notice.
They looked good, both in the qualifying runs and the longer runs as well, said Piastri, who leads Norris by 15 points after 11 of 24 races.
I think they're in the fight this weekend which is interesting to see.
