What channel is Formula 1 on today? TV schedule, start time for 2021 British Grand Prix
Sunday's race might be the biggest test of Lewis Hamilton's 2021 F1 season.
It's lucky 7s for Hamilton: The seven-time world champ and seven-time British GP winner is looking for his fourth win on the season, looking to stop the march of the Red Bulls.
Last year, Hamilton won the British GP on just three tires, with Max Verstappen chasing him down in the closing laps of the race. Still, Hamilton won on a blown tire in a total spectacle of a race that put him on track and in the clear for his seventh world title. Now, Hamilton is looking up at Verstappen on the F1 table.

Though it's still not even midway through the F1 season, that's an uncomfortable sight for Mercedes, which has had equal parts self-inflicted wounds and a second car to Red Bull in multiple races this year. Verstappen's dominant win over Hamilton at the Styrian GP means that a championship celebration this year isn't as a sure a thing for Merc.
Here's what you need to know about this weekend's F1 race:

In all, there are 23 scheduled races in the 2021 F1 season, with the Portuguese Grand Prix the last race added, sliding onto the docket the first week in March.
