‘GOATIFI’ Storms the Internet as Nicholas Latifi Does the Unthinkable With Miraculous British GP Performance

Nicholas Latifi has qualified for Q3! The Canadian has shocked every Formula 1 fan with an unlikely result that sees him start from the top 10 at tomorrow’s race. Latifi has out-qualified his teammate for the first time this season as Albon was knocked out of Q1.

Just last year, we saw the Williams of George Russell finish P8 in the qualifying in the same venue. And it seems like Latifi has carried this tradition. This result could be a massive boost for the 26-year-old as he’s struggled to compete for the points position throughout this season.

This result is even fruitful for Latifi, as Alex Albon’s car was upgraded ahead of the British GP. With a new floor in place for the Thai driver, Williams took a similar route to that of Red Bull. However, Albon struggled with grips during Q1 and ultimately finished behind his teammate in P16.

The Canadian, however, has been under immense pressure and rumors surrounding his future took center stage. He has not finished above P14 this year, but this will certainly help his confidence.
