F1: Early Predictions for British GP

#5 Double points for Renault

Carlos Sainz at Austrian GP

Renault struggled in Spielberg due to the high track temperature. Hulkenberg's engine blew spectacularly on lap 11 and Sainz had a miserable race because of heavy tire blistering.

Silverstone is expected to have lower temperatures and the nature of the circuit usually rewards the well-rounded teams. This will wipe the added advantage that Haas cars had in Austria especially with the circuit being small in comparison to Silverstone.

This will put Renault in prime position to get back to the head of midfield with double points finish safely in their reach.
