British Grand Prix

The British Grand Prix is an Grand Prix motor race organised in the United Kingdom by the Royal Automobile Club. First organized in 1926, it was brought back to Grand Prix status in 1948 before becoming the first ever Formula One only two years later.

Early start
The history of the British Grand Prix could be traced right back to 1926 with the first edition of the Grand Prix being held at Brooklands as part of the World Manufacturers' Championship. The race was won by French pair Robert Sénéchal and Louis Wagner driving a Delage 15 S 8. The following year saw Edmond Bourlier win the race also in a Delage race. During the time that the race wasn't held, a race held in Domington was held for four years under the name of the Domington Grand Prix with some saying that it could be a future British Grand Prix venue. But that was later scrapped when World War II began.
