The 30-year-old actress found herself in the spotlight at the prestigious race, receiving a VIP pass that usually entails giving interviews to the media. The former racer-turned-presenter engaged in conversations with Brad Pitt, Pep Guardiola, Florence Pugh, Sam Ryder, and Liam Payne before being snubbed by Delevingne, who expressed her reluctance to speak.
Silverstone witnessed Max Verstappen’s remarkable triumph, marking his sixth consecutive race win of the year and eighth overall. Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton clinched the second and third positions, respectively, with Norris accomplishing his inaugural podium finish on native terrain, while Hamilton extended his remarkable career with his 13th podium at the British Grand Prix.
Verstappen now holds a substantial lead of nearly 100 points over his closest rival, Sergio Perez. As the drivers enjoy a weekend break, they prepare to embark on the next leg of the 2023 racing season in Hungary.
The incident prompted social media users to criticize the 30-year-old actress, branding her as rude. However, Delevingne has responded to the backlash.
In response to the situation, the British model and actress took to Twitter to address the issue and defended her actions. She explained, “I was instructed to decline, and so I did. Thank you for understanding both perspectives. Regardless of what others may think, I had a fantastic time today and was delighted to be present.”

Reports suggest that it was an F1 representative who advised her to refuse the interviews. During the incident, an individual resembling an Alfa Romeo staff member accompanied the model on the grid and became involved in the exchange with Brundle, who argued that everyone should now be obliged to speak.
Delevingne clarified the situation, stating, “It wasn’t an agent; it was an F1 representative.”
