Motor racing is a sport that enables both the fan and the competitor, to travel to various destinations around the world. The British Grand Prix is usually hosted at Silverstone, but from 2010 it is thought that this motor racing event will be moved to Donnington Park. People who go to watch the motor racing get to see the qualifying sessions which usually take place on a Saturday before the main event, and this involves the drives battling it out for pole position on the Sunday’s race. The Sunday race it the calendar event of the year ‘the Formula 1 British Grand Prix’.

Spa-Francorchamps is where the Belgian Grand Prix is held, and the German Grand Prix is held at both the Nurburgring and Hockenhein race circuits.

Motor racing itself hosts events all over the world, whether it is grand prix racing or motor bike racing, where the biggest race is the TT race which is held yearly on the Isle of Man.
