Eddie Irvine finished second for the Ferrari team and Williams driver Ralf Schumacher came in third. Jacques Villeneuve and Alessandro Zanardi both stalled on the grid. The race was red flagged due to Race Director Charlie Whiting accidentally hitting the red flag button instead of the pit exit open button.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQt9wffyUzw&t=4000 Herbie Blash: From Race Mechanic to Race Control F1 Beyond The Grid Podcast YouTube 2 August 2023 While the red flags were out, Michael Schumacher crashed at Stowe corner due to brake failure, breaking his right leg. This would keep him out of Formula One until the Malaysian Grand Prix, ending his championship hopes. Following a difficult season Damon Hill performed well to finish 5th in his home race and seemed happy enough to carry on for the rest of the season. He had also briefly led the race for a lap, which was the last time he would lead a Grand Prix.http://www.f1complete.com/content/view/368/273/ F1 Complete Hill, Damon https://web.archive.org/web/20080119214110/http://www.f1complete.com/content/view/368/273/ 19 January 2008 usurped 10 January 2016 This was Toranosuke Takagi's final classified Formula One race finish. He failed to finish each of his subsequent eight races. This was McLaren team's first British Grand Prix victory since 1989. The podiums of Coulthard and Irvine (for 1st and 2nd) also marked the last time two drivers racing under a British flag would stand together on the podium at their home event until the 2023 edition where Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton finished second and third.
