1993 British Grand Prix

The 1993 British Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Silverstone on 11 July 1993. It was the ninth round of the 1993 Formula One season. Damon Hill appeared set for his first Formula One victory, before his engine failed on lap 42. This handed the win to his team-mate Alain Prost.

Ayrton Senna dropped from third to fifth due to running out of fuel on the final lap. He had also ran out at the same corner in 1991, and also parked there due to a mechanical failure in 1992.

Complimenting the Lotus team on Johnny Herbert's fourth place finish, Murray Walker closed his broadcast with the words "Lotus are back!". As it turned out, the team only scored points once more.
