Jenson, 38, a former F1 champion, is currently competing in the FIA World Endurance Championship for SMP Racing and drove at Silverstone in Northants yesterday.

But he failed to secure his first podium finish at the venue in almost 20 years — including his 17 years as an F1 driver — after being forced into retirement.

Yesterday he tweeted: “So this was the end of our Silverstone 6hrs.

"We were running in 3rd so really disappointing for the whole team and for the fans that came out to support us for which we’re so grateful.”
