The British motorcycle Grand Prix is a motorcycling event that is part of the FIM Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. The inaugural British motorcycle Grand Prix, the first motorcycle Grand Prix to be held on the British mainland, took place at the Silverstone Circuit. The event was moved to Donington Park in 1987 before returning to Silverstone in 2010. There was no race in 2018 due to weather conditions; it resumed in 2019. The 2019 British motorcycle Grand Prix saw one of the closest finishes in MotoGP history, when Álex Rins won the race ahead of Marc Márquez by 0.014 seconds. Raúl Fernández secured a dominant victory at the 2026 Qatar Airways Grand Prix of Great Britain, leading from the opening lap at Silverstone Circuit to cross the finish line 2.5 seconds ahead of the field. Championship leader Jorge Martín finished in second place after bouncing back from an early mechanical issue, while Marco Bezzecchi secured third place to complete a clean podium sweep for Aprilia machinery.
