The organizers of the British GP F1 circuit has launched a lawsuit against Aggregate Industries, the company that laid the race track in 2018. They have sued the company for £8 million ($9.8 million) after the irregularities on the surface during the race that year. Lewis Hamilton was one driver who voiced his opinion on the poor track conditions after the race.

He revealed the track was uneven as the drivers struggled with bouncing effect. ”The people they hired did the worst job ever. It’s the bumpiest track I’ve ever experienced. It’s bumpier than the Nordschleife, which is 100 years old.”

“It’s rattling your freaking eyeballs out of your brain. Apart from that it’s fantastic but jeez, they need to hire someone better. Don’t know how you could do such a bad job in layering the track,” the Mercedes driver said.

The organizers paid Aggregate Industries around $2.45 million to resurface the track, but with several flaws in the work, the company could be forced to pay more. There was no significant issue at the Formula 1 event as Lewis Hamilton himself took home the honors.

However, the 2018 MotoGP in the venue witnessed five accidents because of the poor surface. As a result, the motorcycle’s governing body, FIM, canceled their contract with the British GP. This cost the Silverstone organizers a whopping £3.5 million ($4.2 million) in revenue.

Following the debacle, Formula 1 contracted Tarmac Trading Ltd from 2019 to lay the track. But the losses pertains to $9.8 million and so the organizers have taken an action against Aggregate Industries.

Can Lewis Hamilton continue his British GP winning streak?

Max Verstappen has already won 6 races this year and has further increased the gap in the championship standings. However, he is yet to taste success more than once in Silverstone.

He suffered a horrific crash during last year’s British GP while trying to overtake Lewis Hamilton. Fortunately, he did not suffer any injuries, as Hamilton won the Grand Prix.

While the Dutchman has only won one race here, Hamilton holds the record for most victories in Silverstone. The Briton has won it a record 8 times, 3 more than any other driver. And after a strong Canadian GP, he will look to carry on this momentum and bag his first victory of 2022 on his home turf.
