The British Grand Prix is a race in the calendar of the FIA Formula One World Championship. It is currently held at the Silverstone circuit in Northamptonshire.
Silverstone has hosted the race regularly since the start of the F1 championship in 1950 and every year since 1987; it alternated with Brands Hatch between 1964 and 1986, and with Aintree (better known as a horse-racing course) between 1955 and 1962.
As of 2003, the future of the race is in some doubt due to a dispute between Silverstone's owners the British Racing Drivers' Club, and the Formula One authorities led by Bernie Ecclestone, over the funding of necessary improvements to keep the track's facilities up to the standards for a Formula One venue.
