About the Circuit
Silverstone is the home of British motorsport and hosted the very first Formula 1 World Championship race in 1950. Built on a former RAF airfield, the circuit is defined by its high-speed flowing corners—Maggots, Becketts and Chapel is arguably the greatest sequence of corners in world motorsport, requiring extraordinary commitment and car balance at over 250 km/h.
