For those who don’t know, MotoGP is the premier world championship for motorcycle racing which, across the year, hosts 22 Grands Prix around the globe.

So far this year, we’ve seen races in Thailand, Argentina and throughout Europe, but the British Grand Prix is set to be a highlight as the well-known 18 bends of Silverstone have unseated many a driver, and disrupted many a competition, in the past.

Although perhaps less known, MotoGP has been around for as long as Formula 1. First organised by the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme in 1949, the championships quickly became the pinnacle of two-wheeled motorsport.

Over the years, the Grand Prix has gone through different versions, with there even being a sidecar race that was abolished in the '90s. Now, it’s simply a high-octane non-stop series of laps from the world’s best motorcyclists. So if that’s something you’re interested in, here’s what you need to know.

The Silverstone race is the seventh Grand Prix in the MotoGP season and takes place on the 23rd – 25th May 2025.

Much like Formula 1, the event is spread across three days. The first day (Friday) is dedicated to a number of free practice sessions, as well as the qualifying rounds for the MotoE race.

The second (Saturday) sees the rest of the qualifying rounds, and additional races. But all of this is just the build-up to Sunday, when the Moto 2, 3 and GP races take place and fans get to see the best racers in the world battle it out over 20 laps at 220mph.

Where is the best place to sit at the Silverstone MotoGP?

The Becketts Grandstand and Woodcote stand are said to afford the best views of the MotoGP. However, it won't surprise you to learn that grandstand seats are much more expensive.

If you're just buying general admission seats, you'll still have access to various viewing points around the track, including the roving grandstands.
