Lewis Hamilton says whoever resurfaced Silverstone did the worst job ever

SILVERSTONE, U.K. -- Lewis Hamilton still rates Silverstone as the greatest circuit in the world, but he has criticised the people responsible for making it the bumpiest track he's experienced in Formula One.

Like many other world class racing circuits, Silverstone's tarmac has been re-laid ahead of this year's race. Onboard shots during practice showed how bumpy the new circuit has become.

When asked how his day was, Hamilton replied: "Do you want the good or the bad? The good is that the weather is fantastic and the crowd was amazing today. It has a fantastic atmosphere and great fun to drive on this track because it's so fast, the fastest it has ever been.
