Silverstone’s five-year contract with F1’s American owners Liberty Media was up for renewal this summer. The F1 president and CEO Stefano Domenicali said: “I am delighted to announce that the British Grand Prix will remain on the calendar for 10 more years with this agreement. The British Grand Prix has been an ever-present on the F1 calendar, dating back more than 70 years, with Silverstone staging the sport’s first world championship race. But the American conglomerate’s commitment to Silverstone comes just weeks after a new race in Madrid was confirmed from 2026. The new F1 season starts in Bahrain on 2 March, with Silverstone hosting the British GP on 7 July.
