Angryginge says he spent 15 hours in custody before being released without charge
YouTuber Angryginge was arrested on suspicion of causing thousands of pounds worth of damage to a classic F1 car at Silverstone.
The 23-year-old, real name Morgan Burtwistle, was livestreaming from the British Grand Prix site with fellow YouTubers Chazza and SamHam on Friday when police approached them.
Earlier, the trio had filmed themselves laughing as Chazza, real name Charlie Clark, attempted to squeeze into the cockpit of an F1 car on display at the event.
Northamptonshire Police confirmed three men, aged 23, 25 and 27, were arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage to a vehicle before being released without further action.
Angryginge, from Salford, is one of the UK’s most popular streamers with 1.3m followers on Twitch.
He’s also known for managing a Baller League team, playing in Soccer Aid and playing for Red Bull’s esports team.
In a vlog posted on Monday he said he was taken to a police station with Chazza and Samham, real name Samuel Imie, for questioning.
He said the three were held in a cell overnight for 15 hours.
“I’m genuinely traumatised,” he told followers, and denied causing any damage to the vehicle.
Even though he was released without charge, he said, he wasn’t allowed to return to Silverstone for the rest of the event.
BBC Newsbeat has contacted organisers for comment.
Northamptonshire Police said the three men were released “following a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the incident”.
They estimated the damage to the car – thought to have been caused by someone accessing the display stand and climbing into the vehicle – would cost several thousand pounds to repair.

Police released an image on Sunday of a man they wanted to speak to over the damage
Separately, the force appealed for information about the theft of a steering wheel from a car on display at the British Grand Prix on Friday.
Officers released an image on Sunday of a man they wanted to speak to in connection with the missing wheel, and said it disappeared at about 14:30 BST.
The force says about half a million people attended British Grand Prix over four days, during which time 34 crimes were reported.
They said 20 people had been arrested across the weekend on suspicion of offences including theft, criminal damage, assault and drugs possession.

Diogo Jota was the type of player who made football feel fun again. Not in the grandiose way of a headline-grabbing superstar but in the way he made you believe in moments. Proper moments. Goals that mattered. Games that turned. And now, he’s gone. It doesn’t make sense. It shouldn’t make sense.

As David Lynch told Dave Davis on Anfield Index, the words still don’t quite settle. “I just feel like it’s not even close to sinking in because you just can’t comprehend that something like this could happen.” And that’s it, isn’t it? Footballers live in a different world. Immortal in some ways. But Jota’s sudden passing, alongside his brother, proves otherwise. Real life crashes in and leaves only grief behind.
Shock That Shakes Foundations
Lynch captured the raw disbelief of it all. “People die at young ages all of the time and all of us have been touched by that in some way, but we put footballers on a pedestal and think that these things don’t happen to them. For someone who plays for Liverpool to be cut down in the prime of his life, and his brother as well, it’s just devastating and it was so unexpected.”

That’s what hit hardest. Jota wasn’t just a name on the teamsheet. He was in his prime. There was more to come. More goals against Arsenal, more last-gasp winners, more dartboard banter and grinning celebrations. And now the echoes of those moments are all we have left.
“It’s something that will go on into the season and for a long, long time,” Lynch continued. “It’s just incredibly sad and it’s going to be that way for a long time.”
More Than A Footballer
Players come and go but some stick. Jota stuck. Lynch referenced Andy Robertson’s description of him as “the most British foreign player,” not because of clichés but because of his darts, his horse-racing, his unpretentiousness. He was a universal teammate, not caught in national cliques or dressing-room politics. “He really did seem to be someone who was liked by everyone,” Lynch said.

The goals mattered. Of course they did. But it’s the man people are talking about now. “There’s so many brilliant memories of him, as someone who loved a goal in a big game.” And he did. Fulham, when Liverpool needed him back. Arsenal, where he always found the net. That Everton finish, under the lights at Anfield, cool as you like in front of the Kop. “That Everton goal might be the most perfect last goal that anyone could score in their career… I could not think of a more Jota goal and I will always cherish that one.”

Together In Grief
Tragedy doesn’t respect colours or rivalries. Football remembers that when it matters. “Everton have more than played their part,” Lynch said. “Just a quick word on them, Everton are an unbelievable football club with unbelievable people in it and they are always there at Liverpool’s lowest moments to show support.”

It’s easy to talk about fan rivalry, but this was something else. A sea of scarves and shirts at Anfield. “I’m blown away by the size of that Anfield tribute and it just shows the strength of feeling, not just for the footballer, but for the man.” That’s where the real grief lies. Not in the stat sheets or the transfer rumours. But in his family. His wife. His children. His parents.
“The family element of it is the hardest hitting part of it all. His wife and his poor children and then obviously his parents and the loss that they have got to contend with… Even in a few weeks it might feel for the rest of us that it has eased off a little bit, but they have got a horrible, long road ahead of them and I don’t know how you recover from something like this.”
A Tribute Beyond Words
Lynch summed it up with heartfelt honesty: “It’s senseless and it’s so hard to get your head around and my heart really does go out to them.”
You don’t get over something like this. You carry it. And you remember. Jota gave us enough to remember. And Liverpool, as a club and a city, will carry him.
Of the 15 editions of the Mixed Relay World Championships in the Series era of the sport, all but five have been held in the format’s spiritual home: Hamburg, Germany. And in recent years, it is only the German Team that has been able to halt what was looking like the unstoppable charge of France in the chase of the world titles.
From 2018-2022, Cassandre Beaugrand was the ever-present link in the French chain of command, helping secure four consecutive titles. For the past two years, however, it has been the hosts who have dominated, a surge of form that included a famous smash-and-grab on the Olympic title in the French capital one year go.
Heading into the 2025 World Triathlon Mixed Relay Championships, it looks even harder than ever to pick the team compositions, let alone the podium. Line-ups can be changed up to two hours ahead of the race start, and while many will be based off results and fitness after the previous day’s WTCS Hamburg individual, there is always the strong possibility of a few special guests flown in specifically for the relay…
Watch all the relay action on TriathlonLive.tv from 1.30pm CEST on Sunday 13 July.
For hosts Germany, the defending World Champions and reigning Olympic Champions, it would be a surprise not to see last year’s line up of Henry Graf, Annika Koch, Lasse Luhrs and Lisa Tertsch in action, though Nina Eim and Tanja Neubert would both have very strong claims for a start.
For France, Cassandre Beaugrand and Dorian Coninx look like certs, Emma Lombardi and Leonie Periault, Tom Richard and Yanis Seguin those on the individual races that would vie for a team spot if so.
Olympic silver medallists the USA have youth on their side in John Reed and Reese Vannerson as well as Chase McQueen and Darr Smith, while their relay regular Taylor Spivey is back on the blue carpet from T100 duty and likely to start with Gwen Jorgensen, Erika Ackerlund and Gina Sereno also in contention.
The New Zealand team have back-to-back World Championship podiums but without the injured Hayden Wilde may struggle, last year’s silver medallists Switzerland likewise look less of a threat if Julie Derron doesn’t race given the Olympic silver medallist’s T100 focus.
Individual comeback race-dependant, Great Britain will be able to count on the returning Georgia Taylor-Brown as she lines up for the first time in 2025 on Saturday, but there is considerable strength in depth led by Beth Potter and Kate Waugh, while the men’s selection looks wide open between the likes of Hugo Milner, Max Stapley and Ben Dijkstra, with Alex Yee still not on the individual start list but ramping up his training again.
Portugal continue to be a huge threat with Vasco Vilaça and Ricardo Batista, Maria Tomé and Melanie Santos a formidable foursome, and Sophie Linn could return for Australia to race along with Matt Hauser and Brandon Copeland or Callum McClusky.
Yuki Tsunoda cut a downbeat figure following the British Grand Prix, describing his pace as “outstandingly slow” in the wet/dry conditions en route to 15th position.
Tsunoda showed some much-needed promise during Qualifying at Silverstone, with the Japanese driver pushing for a Q3 spot until a power issue hampered his final run and left him just outside the cut.
Starting the race from 11th, Tsunoda was hopeful of being in points contention amid the changeable weather, only to struggle throughout and eventually cross the line as the final finisher – a lap down on winner Lando Norris.
Tsunoda’s afternoon included a clash with Haas rookie Ollie Bearman, which earned him a 10-second penalty and added insult to injury.
“I mean, it’s quite clear with that collision,” he said afterwards. “Other than that, to be honest the pace was sadly very slow.
“When it comes to the long run, it’s something that always is very outstandingly slow somehow. Just ‘degging’ [the tyres] like crazy – I never had like this kind of feeling.
“I know we were running quite low downforce, but to be honest I had still good confidence in the rain. The rain pace was absolutely nowhere, so I’m a bit lost.”
Asked what he can take from the weekend, given his apparent progress before the race, Tsunoda added: “Yeah, a couple of positives from the dry conditions. On one lap it was pretty good, but yeah, the long run is something to look at more.”
In the other Red Bull, Max Verstappen started from pole position and came away with a fifth-place finish, having lost ground with a spin when a mid-race Safety Car period ended.
George Russell was left to rue a British Grand Prix where “everything went wrong at every single point”, as Mercedes had a race to forget at Silverstone.
The Briton came home in 10th place on Sunday, having started fourth, as the Silver Arrows’ gambles failed to pay off in a Grand Prix that saw a mid-race rain shower, two Virtual Safety Car periods and two full Safety Cars.
The first crucial call that backfired occurred before the lights had even gone out – Russell one of five drivers to pit at the end of the Formation Lap for slick tyres. But thanks to a first lap crash involving Racing Bulls’ Liam Lawson, an immediate VSC period was called and that hampered Russell’s attempts to keep his hard tyres up to temperature.
The Briton did start to make some progress back through the field as the rain fell, his Mercedes looking well balanced in the wet conditions, but then came a second call to move back to the hard tyre again as the track dried.
With Fernando Alonso having pitted for slicks half a lap before, it became apparent that Alonso was struggling and soon Russell was also in a similar position.
Once again he could not get the C2 rubber up to temperature and spun off into the gravel – fortunately keeping clear of the barriers. In the end he did hold onto P10 at the flag, which was a small consolation from a very disappointing Grand Prix.
“Everything just went wrong at every single point to be honest,” Russell explained. “I feel at the beginning, pitting to slicks was not a stupid decision as we knew it was going to be dry for 25 minutes.
“But we had 15 minutes’ worth of [Virtual] Safety Car and that didn’t allow us to warm the tyres, it didn’t allow us to [utilise] the gains of when it was dry. By the end of that stint, we were five seconds a lap faster than the wet runners.
“Then at the end maybe I called to pit one or two laps early, but I wasn’t expecting the hard tyre and of course then it all just went wrong. Really disappointing day, if you play it safe, you’ll come home with a safe result and that’s not really what we were going for.”
Despite having a new set of mediums, Mercedes didn’t fit those or any of the softs onto Russell’s car – which Lance Stroll used to good effect in the early stages of the race. And, as Nico Hulkenberg showed with his run from P19 to third, there were big points available to anyone who made the right calls in a dramatic race.
“I think at the beginning with the information we had, it was totally justifiable but the call at the end was not right, that’s on me,” Russell concluded.
“If you have a fast car, you can afford to do what you want, and you’ll always find yourself in a good position. At the moment unfortunately we don’t have that luxury.”
While Russell did at least see the chequered flag, the same couldn’t be said for his team mate as Kimi Antonelli was rear-ended by the Racing Bulls car of Isack Hadjar when the visibility was at its worst midway through the race. Although Antonelli was able to limp back to the pits, the damage was too great and he retired the car.
“I mean the whole diffuser was gone so it was pretty undriveable the car, it was a shame,” the teenager said.
“I was just a passenger but I think Isack, he was also a passenger because he couldn’t see until he was into my back. So yeah, just a shame to have ended with another DNF.”
Michael Venus has parted ways with Nikola Mektic as his doubles partner and agreed to team up with India’s Yuki Bhambri.
Venus confirmed that he and Mektic, from Croatia, had agreed before Wimbledon that this would be their last tournament together, with both of them deciding they should part ways.
“We get on and nothing’s really happened,” Venus said.
“We just have a different philosophy or view on how we both like to go about things.
“We’ve been trying to find a way to make it work, but it feels like one person’s always going away from what they’re naturally comfortable doing to try and balance it out.
“So we talked and we both thought maybe it made more sense to try and find someone that we can work well with.”
Venus and Mektic started 2025 as a team and had instant success, winning the ASB Classic.
They also reached the semifinal in Miami and got to the final at Queen’s prior to Wimbledon.
But they have failed to win more than one match at 11 tournaments this year, including Wimbledon.
Venus said there were a few factors on and off the court which led to the split.
“It’s a little bit of everything, to be honest, on court, practice wise, how we like to go about things,” he said.
“Some people like to warm up closer to matches. Some like far away. How you like to practice the day before matches, how you want to work on things individually or as a team. If you have a different view on how you think should do it, that’s the tricky part.
“We still get on well and have had some good results, but we feel like for both of us to achieve or keep going with what we’re wanting to do, that we think it would help to have someone else that we work well with.”
Teaming up with Bhambri completes a circle for Venus, as they played doubles together at the beginning of their careers.
“I’ve known Yuki for a long time. We played the challenges together. Played Aussie Open for the first time together, when we got a wildcard and made third round there (in 2014).
“Obviously, he played singles for numerous years, and then he focused on doubles for the last couple years, and his ranking is at a point now where we could play (35). So we’ll start over the summer and see how it goes through it.”
Venus and Bhambri’s first tournament together will be in Los Cabos, Mexico, which starts on July 14.
It was an excellent few days at Silverstone for Campos Racing with Mari Boya coming out on top in a wet Feature Race.
This made it an English double for the Spanish outfit after Tasanapol Inthraphuvasak claimed his and Thailand’s first FIA Formula 3 win in the Sprint.
READ MORE: Several drivers penalised following Silverstone Feature Race
But just how did the Campos driver do it on Saturday? Well, it had a lot to do with tyre management. Not just his, but also from the others around him, and here’s how…
MAKING THE STRONG START
With 30 cars in F3, being at the front is always preferrable, and for Inthraphuvasak, making sure he stayed in the lead from reverse grid pole was key.
The Thai driver did just that, making a clean getaway, while Théophile Nael had an excellent start from fourth to overtake Christian Ho down the Wellington Straight for second.
Inthraphuvasak made a good start from pole to keep the lead into Turn 1
But there was an early Safety Car, with Brando Badoer and Nikola Tsolov having collided at Turn 4, leaving the PREMA Racing driver stranded in the gravel.
Racing resumed on Lap 5, but those three laps behind the Safety Car would have helped the Hard tyres last longer, but they still required some managing.
BACK TO RACING
Once the action got back underway, Inthraphuvasak was having to hold off Nael, while behind them, Martinius Stenshorne made a decisive move to the inside at Turn 4 on Ho for P3.

At the end of Lap 5, the top three were the only drivers in the 1:48s, with Nael the quickest of the trio. The VAR rookie’s 1:48.373 was over a tenth faster than the other two.
Nael improved to a 1:47.541 on the next lap and overtook Inthraphuvasak for the lead. The Campos driver and the rest of the top 10 all stayed in the 1:48s, as the Frenchman looked to get out of DRS range.
The VAR driver stayed in the 1:47s on Lap 7, but this time he was joined by Inthraphuvasak, who after the race said:
Nael got ahead of Inthraphuvsak early on in the Sprint Race
“I saw that he was pushing really hard behind. He got passed me and from that point on I tried to manage, but I stayed within DRS of him so that he doesn’t pull away too much.”
Stenshorne also improved his time by a tenth to a 1:48.010 looking to stay with the top two.
THE TIMES BEGIN TO DROP
Nael’s next two laps were in the 1:48s as the rest of the field settled into management. But on Lap 10, VAR called on him to give back the place to Inthraphuvasak after they believed he had overtaken him off track.
FEATURE RACE: Boya takes Silverstone win after rain and Red Flag
From Lap 11 to 13, the majority of the drivers fighting for the points were all in the 1:49s, but if you look close enough, this is where we began to see the signs of struggle.
Nael was eight-tenths slower than Inthraphuvasak on Lap 13, who completed a 1:49.107. That was at least three-tenths quicker than any driver in the top 10. Only Ivan Domingues and Tuukka Taponen, in 18th and 19th respectively, matched the race leader.
This was partly the Campos driver looking to pull away – which he did as by the start of Lap 14, he was 1.4s clear out in front.
Stenshorne managed his pace well early on in third place
But it was also because of Nael’s struggles, as he could be seen sliding around through the corners, especially at Copse.
Stenshorne, who had managed his tyres better, eventually made his way past his VAR rival for P2 into Stowe corner. On that lap, the Hitech TGR driver and Inthraphuvasak were in the 1:49s, while Nael was a second of the pace with a 1:50.579.
THE FINAL FEW LAPS
Stenshorne had clearly kept his tyres in great shape. On Lap 15, he completed a 1:48.976, three-tenths quicker than Inthraphuvasak.
READ MORE: Round 7 Post Sprint Race Press Conference
By not pushing too early, he had pace in hand towards the end, while Nael slipped into the clutches of Laurens van Hoepen and Boya by doing a 1:50.280.
Nael eventually lost P3 to Boya – before two penalties dropped him to P19 in the final classification – but Stenshorne remained in the 1:48s on Lap 16 and 17.
On Lap 16, the McLaren-backed driver took another three-tenths out of Inthraphuvasak, who responded matched him with a 1:48.9 on Lap 17 to keep the Hitech car out of DRS range.
In the end, Inthraphuvasak crossed the line to win by 1.7s, giving him a deserved victory.
Inthraphuvasak claimed his first win in Formula 3 in the Sprint
WHY WAS THIS POSSIBLE?
On the road, Nael finished fourth but his pace dropped off massively and he lost a second a lap to Inthraphuvasak from Lap 12 onwards.
The Thai driver and Stenshorne had clearly managed their tyres well early on, opting against pushing too hard at the start, so that they could have some performance at the end. Their ability to dip into the 1:48s proved that.

It was the same for Boya, who finished third. The Spaniard had consistent pace throughout, starting in the 1:48s and only dropping into the 1:49s late in the race.
No matter the compound or the circuit layout, tyre management is a key skill for the drivers, and if you master it, you will be rewarded.
Victory in the FIA Formula 3 Feature Race and a podium in the Sprint; the 2025 British Grand Prix weekend will live long in the memory for Aston Martin Aramco Academy Driver Mari Boya.
Feature Race win. Sprint podium. Should Mari Boya’s successful weekend at Silverstone come as any great surprise? Just weeks before our home race weekend, Mari revealed how the circuit was his favourite.
“The layout, the speed, the atmosphere – everything. Silverstone has a special feeling.”
The inaugural member of the Aston Martin Aramco Driver Academy, a programme dedicated to developing the next generation of exceptional motorsport talent, 21-year-old Mari put in a spirited fight through the field to finish on the podium in Saturday’s Sprint before mastering wet conditions at Silverstone in a performance that belied his years and meant he came away from Northamptonshire with 27 points and his best F3 weekend to date.
We caught up with one of Spain’s most promising young drivers after an unforgettable weekend.
On the weekend’s triumphs
“What a weekend! Super happy! Happy to maximise all the potential we have had. Super proud to be here, super happy and enjoying the moment!
“[I had] solid pace since Friday and a good Qualifying with the fourth position. The comeback in Sprint from the ninth position to the podium gave us even more strength and confidence.
“And finally, getting my first win of the season. Doing it at Silverstone, at the home of Aston Martin Aramco, couldn’t be more special for me.”
On climbing positions in the Sprint Race
”It was really fun. I think the overtakes have been really strong in the last few races. At Silverstone, we showed great pace, so I’m really happy.”
“[The overtake into P3] was really nice. At that point, I was having challenges on the tyres, so I just tried to focus on the exits to prepare well. [Laurens van Hoepen
and Théophile Naël
] were fighting so I think it was maximised well. It was the move for the podium so I’m really happy.”
The most important things was to be calm, read the situation and be as fast as possible.
On battling the rain in the Feature Race
“I was confident of racing on a dry track. I wanted to race on the slicks, but it wasn’t the case. The most important things was to be calm, read the situation and be as fast as possible.
“Once I saw that it started to rain a bit, I didn’t care what the rest were doing. I knew that the last sector was properly wet, and I said to my engineer, ‘If you believe in me, let’s go.’ I’m happy that he believed in me at that point. It was a difficult situation but we managed it really well.
“At the beginning, it was really nice. The grip and everything was nice, but once the Safety Car came it was impossible to see anything. We were super slow on the straights, and I didn’t have much control of the car. Even the Safety Car was struggling in some places. I knew I had to be calm and really precise in those moments.
“I was constantly speaking with [my engineer] to tell him what the situation was. He was telling me when the rain was coming, and I was saving tyres because these Wet tyres don’t last long on a dry track. Every lap, we were in contact, reading the situation as best and as fast as possible. I think we both managed very well and super proud of him as well.”
Seeing Andy Cowell as soon as I got out of the car was really special.
On the Aston Martin Aramco Driver Academy
“I must say a huge thank you for all the support from everyone at Aston Martin Aramco. Seeing [CEO and Team Principal] Andy Cowell and him congratulating me as soon as I got out of the car was really special.
“I’m really proud to join the Aston Martin Aramco family. All the races since I joined the Driver Academy have been really good, so I’m excited to keep working together.”
On the future
“P1 and P3 puts us in a good position in fighting for the Championship. The pace is looking really strong. We just did a hat-trick of podiums, one in Austria and two here in a row. It’s looking really good, and I’m super excited for the rest of the season. I feel prepared.
“Let’s go for more in Belgium!”
Andy Cowell on Mari’s weekend
“Mari delivered an exceptional performance to take his maiden FIA Formula 3 Feature Race victory, and in very tough, wet conditions. His composure was impressive, and climbing from P13 to P4 in the championship over the past two events shows just how determined he is to demonstrate his skill.
“It’s a significant milestone for Mari and a special moment for our Driver Academy, marking its very first win.”
Mari returns to the track at Spa-Francorchamps on the hunt for more silverware in the FIA Formula 3 Championship on 25-27 July, before heading to the Hungaroring – a circuit he tells us is a close second favourite to Silverstone – for the final rounds before the summer break.

From exclusive collabs to once-in-a-lifetime prizes, I / AM DROPS is a new series of unique and ultra-limited moments and fan experiences.
Three years ago, when England won their first major trophy at the expense of Germany, Bühl could only watch on from the sidelines, unable to step in and help her teammates.
Her standout form came to a crashing halt before the semi-finals, when she tested positive for COVID-19 and, as a result, missed out on the rest of the tournament.
Since then, the 24-year-old has gone from strength to strength as she continues to live up to expectations.
Considered one of the most exciting wingers in the game, Bühl arrived in Switzerland on the back of a career best campaign in the Fauen-Bundesliga.
Seven goals and 14 assists in the league alone proved a remarkable return for a player with limitless potential.
Now she is being looked at as one of the nation’s brightest hopes; someone who sparks belief that their ninth European title is coming.
With captain Giulia Gwinn ruled out for the remainder of the campaign, it has never been more important for each and every player to step up.
After missing those crucial stages of 2022, there will be added incentive to get the job done this time around, with Bühl ready to lead the way.
Performing in the spotlight did not always come so naturally to the international no.19, though she was forced to confront it as a teenager.
Making her Frauen-Bundesliga debut aged 15 for former club Freiburg, the tricky two-footed attacker had to become accustomed to life at the top fairly quickly.
“I felt like I had to pretend at first; cameras, media – I first had to learn to get to know myself,” Bühl confessed to Queenzine.
“I had to learn how to deal with successes and failures and still maintain my values.
“Over time, I realised that the most important thing is to stay true to yourself.”
The pressures of club and country can be palpable, so there’s no wonder Bühl turns to slow and steady activities like crocheting in her downtime.
She knitted mascots for the national team at both the 2023 World Cup and the 2024 Olympics, the second of which saw them to a bronze medal.
It looks as though the forward didn’t have the time to crochet one for EURO 2025 – but the weaving remains, this time on the pitch as Bühl glides in and out of opposing players in pursuit of a ninth German title.
