Race behind the race
Formula 1 teams and drivers return to Silverstone, the birthplace of the FIA Formula One World Championship. The very first championship race was held here on May 13, 1950, at a converted Royal Air Force airfield in West Northamptonshire. That day, Giuseppe Farina drove to victory for Alfa Romeo and went on to become F1’s first world champion.
Since then, Formula 1 has grown dramatically. What began as a European-based series with just seven races has transformed into a truly global championship. The 2025 season features another record-tying 24 races, showcasing cutting-edge technology, international venues, and intense competition across five continents.
The British Grand Prix is the 12th round of the season and follows just one week after the Austrian Grand Prix at Spielberg. It marks the middle race in a demanding summer stretch of European rounds. After Silverstone, teams get a two-week break before heading into a double-header at the Hungarian Grand Prix and the Belgian Grand Prix. This phase of the calendar puts enormous pressure on both logistics and personnel, especially as all freight moves by biofuel-powered DHL trucks in line with Formula 1’s and DHL’s joint sustainability goals.
