The British Grand Prix is currently a race on the Formula One calendar. It was an original race on the first World Championship calendar in 1950 and was held on the Silverstone Circuit - where it would remain for much of the early years. It is the only Grand Prix to have been part of the world championship for every Formula One season.
Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the race would swap between Silverstone in Northamptonshire and Brands Hatch in before settling on Silverstone in the 1990s. However, in 2009, Donington Park in Leicestershire would steal the British GP away from Silverstone - where it remained for the next decade. A restructuring in Formula One saw the race move to Snetterton Circuit for the first time ahead of the 2021 season.
Such is the popularity of Grand Prix racing in the United Kingdom, the country has also hosted other Grands Prix such as the European Grand Prix, the English Grand Prix and the Scottish Grand Prix as well as many non-championship races and a short-lived British Formula One Championship.
