What date is listed for the 2026 British Grand Prix, the round before Belgium?

The story behind the answer

The 2026 British Grand Prix is listed for 5 July, one round before the Belgian Grand Prix.

The race is scheduled at Silverstone Circuit, the historic Northamptonshire venue that hosted the first Formula One World Championship race in 1950. In the 2026 calendar, the British round is round 9, followed by the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps on 19 July.

The date can be confused with the nearby Austrian Grand Prix on 28 June or the Belgian Grand Prix on 19 July. The 12 July option falls between the two listed race dates but is not the scheduled British Grand Prix date.

The 2026 British weekend is also listed among the events using the sprint format, meaning its timetable includes a sprint in addition to the main Sunday race. Silverstone remains one of Formula One’s most historically significant circuits.
