Silverstone secures an extended deal with Formula 1

Formula 1 has today confirmed that the British Grand Prix will extend its stay on the calendar until 2034.
Silverstone has signed a new ten-year contract, which will keep our home race on the calendar for the foreseeable future.
The circuit hosted the very first Formula 1 Grand Prix in 1950 and is one of the cornerstones of the F1 season, with the iconic layout a favourite amongst fans and drivers alike.
Be it glorious sunshine or torrential rain, the fans always turn out in great numbers each year to cheer on their favourites, with so many showing their support for Williams Racing.
“I am delighted to announce that the British Grand Prix will remain on the calendar for 10 more years with this agreement,” said the President and CEO of Formula 1, Stefano Domenicali.
“Silverstone is an iconic venue at the heart of F1 history and as it approaches its ninth decade hosting Grands Prix, the event continues to attract fans from around the world for fantastic racing on track and the amazing fan experience off it.
“I would like to thank Peter Digby from the BRDC, Stuart Pringle and the whole Silverstone team for their hard work and dedication to take the British Grand Prix to new heights and I look forward to working closely with them as they look to further improve the facilities and fan experience over the next 10 years.”

The British Grand Prix will always hold a special place in our hearts, not only because it’s our home event, but it was the location of our first victory in the sport when, in 1979, Clay Reggazoni came home in P1 at Silverstone.
We have won the British Grand Prix on 10 separate occasions, with eight coming at Silverstone and two more secured at Brands Hatch.
In 2023, we were able to celebrate our 800th Grand Prix at Silverstone, with Alex Albon and Logan Sargeant coming home in P8 and P11 respectively.
