Anya Taylor-Joy and a subdued Lewis Hamilton return to London after British GP at Silverstone.

Anya Taylor-Joy joined Lewis Hamilton in flying back to London on Sunday night via helicopter, after the driver fell short at the British Grand Prix.

The actress, 29, and her husband Malcolm McRae, were spotted climbing out of chopper, after showing their support for Lewis, 40, at Silverstone.

Still rallying for her F1 pal, Anya sported a red Ferrari jacket and a matching baseball cap over her platinum blonde tresses.

While her musician husband, 31, was still wearing his smart blazer, striped shirt and tie, that he’d donned for the race earlier that day.

Lewis looked noticeably disheartened on arrival, wearing a Ferrari-branded hoodie and hiding his face under a pair of dark shades, despite the late hour.

The seven-time world champion missed out on taking his first podium with Ferrari on Sunday, finishing the tensely-fought, and rain-soaked race in fourth place.

While Lando Norris came out triumphant and sped across the finish line to victory, landing his first ever home podium and beating his dominant team-mate Oscar Piastri. 

Anya and Malcom watched all the action from the Ferrari garage, alongside fellow Hollywood star Rebecca Ferguson.

The Furiosa star has shown her love of Formula 1 over the year after growing up watching the races with her parents.

And she is good pals with Lewis, previously attending the Monaco Grand Prix last year as his guest, where she gushed over the racing icon, telling Sky Sports: ‘I’m here to support a wonderful friend and an absolute legend.’

Lewis has won the British Grand Prix a record nine times, and was hoping to make his first victory in Ferrari red on Sunday.

However, he ran wide after his final stop and that left him with too much to do to catch Sauber’s Niko Hulkenberg for third place.

While it marked Norris’ fourth victory of the season and put him just eight points of Piastri, who finished runner-up, at the world championship summit. 

His mother Cisca embraced the 25-year-old the moment he stepped out of the car, imploring him to raise his visor and saying: ‘Let me see your eyes. Enjoy, enjoy’.

‘Beautiful,’ said Norris, his voice thin, putting triumph in the Midlands ahead even of his delight in Monaco in May.

His triumph makes the Bristolian only the 13th driver from these shores to win the British Grand Prix, and lift the gold Grand Prix Trophy, transported from its home in the Royal Automobile Club in Pall Mall for the ceremonies. 

Names dating back to Sir Stirling Moss, including Jim Clark and Sir Jackie Stewart, Nigel Mansell and Damon Hill, and up to Lewis, adorn it.

It had not looked likely to be Norris’s day, as he started third, behind Piastri, with Max Verstappen on pole.

Defending champion Verstappen’s lap on Saturday had been supreme, but the last element he wanted as he tried to convert that primacy into victory was rain, and it was soon apparent that Piastri’s McLaren was faster.

Piastri duly passed Verstappen, who ran wide at Stowe, seven of 52 laps into the action on a damp road on which rain intermittently fell.

Stowe, of ironies, is where the ‘Lando Grandstand’ housed 10,000 of his faithful followers. Still, a cheer went up for Piastri, Verstappen being the pantomime villain right on that spot. 

The action was stop-start, and two virtual safety cars and two actual ones came out in the first half of the race.

The biggest shunt saw Racing Bulls’ Isack Hadjar catch the back of Mercedes’ unsighted Kimi Antonelli in the spray. 

Hadjar careered off into the gravel at Copse, though thankfully the pebbles took the worst of the sting out of it. He retired, as did Antonelli later.

That prang brought out the fateful safety car for which Norris could be so grateful.

Norris grasped this twist of fortune, needing to stay within 10 seconds of Piastri to land glory. Indeed, he narrowed the gap. There was 1.3sec in it with 10 laps remaining.

Of the other Brits, Russell never quite found his feet in the wet conditions, moved too early to slicks towards the end, and slipped off. He finished 10th.

The final homegrown talent, Oliver Bearman, survived a race that culled the rest of the rookies to finish a highly creditable if not entirely uneventful 11th for Haas, including a collision with his team-mate Ocon.
