Silverstone will host another weekend of scintillating two-wheeled racing on 07-09 August 2026, with fans encouraged to secure their tickets early for an event that always proves hugely popular.
Following a long hiatus, Silverstone returned to the MotoGP calendar in 2010 and has been a mainstay ever since. The 2025 race saw Marco Bezzecchi deliver a sensational comeback victory, capitalising on a red-flag restart and Fabio Quartararo’s mechanical DNF to claim the win for Aprilia by 4.088 s over Johann Zarco, with Marc Márquez rounding out the podium.

Racing heritage
Silverstone has been the backdrop for some of the most unforgettable moments in MotoGP history. In 2019, Alex Rins etched his name into the record books with a breathtaking last-corner move on Marc Márquez, using just a fraction more grip to edge ahead at the line by 0.014 seconds – the closest finish in MotoGP history. It was a moment that captured the drama, precision, and unpredictability that Silverstone is known for.

While the Silverstone Museum celebrates decades of motorsport heritage with legendary cars and bikes, the track itself continues to make history year after year. Each British Grand Prix adds a new chapter to its legacy, with daring overtakes, dramatic battles, and heart-pounding finishes that remind fans why Silverstone is one of the sport’s most iconic venues.
