The crazy English weekend is over, It's time to change the Fanta odds F1: here are the 3 drivers who gain value and the 3 who lose it after the Silverstone GP.
Who goes up to Fanta F1
Nico Hulkenberg
Obvious, but The absolute star of the British weekend can only increase in value.
Nico Hülkenberg, after a comeback from 19th to third place, brought Sauber back to an F1 podium after more than 10 years. The last time was with Kobayashi at Suzuka in 2012.
A perfect strategy put him in the fight for the top positions, then the Mercedes disaster, Verstappen's Red Bull uncontrollable in the wet and Leclerc struggling put him in the fight for the podium. Hülkenberg, however, with a perfect drive, first overtook Stroll and then defended himself from the arrival of Hamilton. In F1 fantasy he is the driver who scored the most points, 37, in the Silverstone GP.
In the last 4 games his average is 21.5 points per game, a yield from top drivers. Waiting to see how long this form of his and Sauber will last its price goes up.
NEW VALUE: 14 YAW
Lando Norris
There has been a lot of criticism about him, but Norris triumphed at Silverstone, again.
The second consecutive victory projects him to just 8 points from his much more acclaimed teammate and brings him to a value of 40 Yaw. The young Englishman triumphs in a race that saw him behind Piastri for most of the laps. However, the Australian's penalty allowed him to overtake him and thus win the first victory on the home circuit. The McLaren is an incredible car even in the wet, yes, but in such conditions, an error is always around the corner (Piastri in Australia is an example of this) and it takes very little to destroy a race that had been perfect up until that point. Norris didn't commit any, he was in Piastri's slipstream for the entire race and didn't let him get close in the final part.
NEW VALUE: 40 YAW
Lance stroll
For a moment the podium seemed within reach of Lance Stroll, then as the track dried out the performance of his Aston Martin dropped. A perfect strategy, the best of the first laps, allowed him to recover many positions with the soft tyre, to then fit a new intermediate tyre at the right time. As mentioned however, from third position he dropped to sixth, to then be overtaken on the last lap by Gasly and therefore finish seventh, still getting 6 precious points. The comeback from 18th position allows him to obtain 18 points in the Fanta F1 in the Silverstone GP: its price from the next GP will be 10 Yaw.
NEW VALUE: 10 YAW
Those who disappointed in the Silverstone GP and are going down
Franco Colapinto
Disastrous weekend for ColapintoJust when rumours from the paddock about his possible replacement arrive, the Argentinean experiences one of his worst weekends. On Saturday in qualifying he loses control of his Alpine on the last corner and ends up in the barriers, ending its run halfway through Q1. Sunday did not go any better for him, as after the formation lap he had to retire due to a gearbox problem.. After the incredible performances shown in 2024 with Williams, 2025 is proving to be very complicated for the Argentine driver. In 6 races not only did he never score points, but his average points in Fanta F1 is -2.38, worst of all the pilots. Its value therefore drops further.
NEW VALUE: 7 YAW
Andrea Kimi Antonelli
Yet another retirement for Kimi Antonelli at Silverstone fuels the black period which is crossing the Italian. In the last 6 races there have been 4 retirements, an 18th place and a podium in Canada.
It is important to underline that of the 4 retirements only one was caused by a driver error. Excluding the error in Austria, on two occasions his Mercedes sinned in reliability, while at Silverstone a collision by Hadjar forced him to retire. Kimi's race had already been compromised by Mercedes' strategic gamble in fitting slick tyres in the early laps.
These excuses, however, do not take away the fact that In the last 5 games Antonelli's fantasy managers have had to face 3 malus (score less than zero). Its value consequently drops, going from 20 Yaw to 19.
NEW VALUE: 19 YAW
Isaac Hadjar
One of the big surprises of the F1 Fantasy in 2025 suffers a setback in the Silverstone GP. His value drops to 11 Yaw. After a start to the season in which he surprised everyone and in which he had rightfully entered into many fantasy manager teams, in the last releases it has disappointed expectations. An overall score of -10 points in the last 3 races puts the French talent in a somewhat lower light in terms of F1 Fantasy.
The increase in competitiveness of Sauber and Aston Martin (especially with Alonso) has certainly limited the space in the top 10, especially with a Racing Bulls that has struggled compared to the beginning of the season. However, there were opportunities. In Austria, his teammate Lawson took sixth place, and in Great Britain his mistake eliminated him from a race where there was room to get into the top positions.
The 3 weeks break will certainly do him good, now it's up to the fantasy managers to decide if it's worth betting on him again.
