Lewis Hamilton answered his critics and got his title campaign back on track with a superb British Grand Prix win.
The McLaren driver mastered tricky conditions, and his team made the right tactical calls, as all his main title rivals had a day to forget.
Hamilton is now tied on points at the top of the championship with Ferrari drivers Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa, who finished fourth and 13th.
Nick Heidfeld took second for BMW ahead of Rubens Barrichello's Honda.
Hamilton's victory was possibly the best race of his short career, and it was a much-needed fillip after he had failed to score points in the previous two races.
The Englishman had been under pressure heading to Silverstone, and looked to be feeling it when he made mistakes on his qualifying laps to end up only fourth on the grid.
But the rain gave him a chance to showcase his superlative natural talent, and he grabbed it with both hands making him the first Englishman to win the British Grand Prix since Jonny Herbert in 1995.
Hamilton made a superb start from the second row almost passing team-mate Heikki Kovalainen on the first corner but he bid his time in second place to take the lead on lap five.
He quickly pulled out an advantage, but was soon back under pressure from Raikkonen, who passed Kovalainen when the McLaren spun on lap 10 and began to eat into Hamilton's lead.
The decisive moment of the race came on lap 21, when Hamilton and Raikkonen came in for their first fuel and tyre stops.
Very disappointed to miss this, I will have to see the highlights, I have been working all day.

Nice to see Lewis get his season back on track, dissapointing for Kimi & Massa, I'm still confident that Ferrari will win I dont know who but one of them will be world champion :P
Thought u would've liked Hamilton been English and all.
Webber finished 10th. Spun on the first lap, and spun a couple of more times from there.
Happy for Barrichello, in a shitty Honda made the best of the conditions and put on thr wet weathers. Was going 30 seconds A LAP faster then Hamilton at one stage.
Sucks for Kubica, who was racing well, and lost it in 4th, right into the gravel.
Epicness is Hamilton, Raikkonen & Massa in a 3 way tie for the drivers.
