The 2010 British Grand Prix (formally the 2010 Formula 1 Santander British Grand Prix) was the tenth race of the 2010 Formula One season. On 7 December 2009, it was confirmed that the race would take place at Silverstone for the next seventeen years after the failure of Donington Park to raise the necessary funds to hold the race.[3] The event was staged on 11 July, the same day as the 2010 FIFA World Cup final (as also happened in 1990 and 1998).[4] The race was won by Red Bull driver Mark Webber, taking his third victory of the season.[5]
This was the last time until the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix that Ferrari did not score a point.
