This weekend, Formula 1 heads back overseas to the U.K. The 2022 British Grand Prix is set for lights out on Sunday.
It might not be Independence Day in England, but there will still be plenty of sparkling racing on one of F1’s most storied tracks. Red Bull has been on quite the run over the last six races: The team has posted six top-step finishes in that span and seven overall this year after a promising start by Ferrari. Now, it feels as if the race could expand beyond the two just a bit.
With Mercedes showing signs of life in recent races, there’s a good chance that one of Britain’s finest, Lewis Hamilton or George Russell, will end up on the podium, especially with Ferrari still dealing with reliability issues.
(And, hopefully, nobody ends up in the wall this year like Max Verstappen did in 2021.)

Formula 1 schedule 2022
There are 22 scheduled events on the F1 docket for 2022, one race shy of tying the mark for longest F1 calendar.
The season started in Bahrain on March 20 and will end with the customary Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, although a bit earlier than usual, in November. If the schedule stands, this will be the earliest end of the Formula 1 season since it ended on Nov. 4 in 2013.
Returning to the 2022 F1 slate are the Canadian and Japanese Grand Prix, both of which were canceled in 2021 amid fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.
The calendar also holds the maiden voyage for the Miami Grand Prix, the first of two races in the United States in 2022, with the customary United States GP taking place in October.
The Russian Grand Prix, originally scheduled for Sept. 25, was canceled because of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
