Lewis Hamilton brought along his British Bulldog Roscoe to day two of the British Grand Prix on Friday as the four-day racing extravaganza continues at Silverstone. 

The F1 Mercedes driver, 39, put on a casual display for the glitzy festival - which runs from July 4-7 - as he arrived in the paddock with his beloved pooch, who Lewis has raised vegan.

Lewis wore a brown oversized jacket which he layered over a white top and a pair of blue baggy cargo trousers. 

Roscoe was spotted pootling behind his famous owner as Lewis stopped to chat to adoring fans and sign autographs. 

This year, the event is about much more than just racing with the festival putting on a series of huge musical performances after they upped the event by an extra day.

The likes of Kings of Leon and Stormzy will grace the stages over the four-day event to entertain guests as the festival starts to become remincient of Glastonbury. 

The actual car racing begins with a practice day on Friday before the real races kick off on Saturday.

Brad Pitt, 60, and Daisy-Edgar Jones, 26, made an appearance on Thursday as the British Grand Prix kicked off.

Actor Brad and Normal People star Daisy were among the big names arriving as the four-day racing extravaganza kicked off.

Brad was there to film scenes for his upcoming F1 film which is yet to be named. He will play the role of a veteran driver, Sonny Hayes, who is returning to the F1 grid after a long absence.

Daisy looked as stylish as ever as she strolled around the paddocks in a black co-ord and shades as she was mobbed by fans who she kindly stopped to take some selies with. 

In terms of musical performances at the Grand Prix four-day event, Thursday kicks off with the arena-filling anthems of Kings of Leon, followed by Stormzy on Friday - which comes after the event's family day. 

Saturday brings the legendary Pete Tong with his iconic dance mixes, and Rudimental will close out the weekend on Sunday. 

The Grand Prix has become more of a festival event in recent years while before it was more sport focused purely over the weekend.

British racing driver Lando was also seen walking around the paddock, gearing up for a big weekend.

He showed off his muscles in a white vest and looked in great spirits ahead of the racing.  

The preview event gives guests the chance meet trainers, physios for the drivers and chat to future talent of the racing world.  

Brad is set to co-produce the film and act as a retired Formula One driver who gets back behind the wheel.

Production on the film began in 2023 and will include scenes from this season's British Grand Prix and Abu Dhabi races.

As DailyMail.com previously reported, all 10 F1 teams will featured, including the sport's drivers and the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile.
