Silverstone Circuit is a motor racing circuit in England, near the Northamptonshire villages of Silverstone and Whittlebury. It is the home of the British Grand Prix, which it first hosted as the 1948 British Grand Prix. The 1950 British Grand Prix at Silverstone was the first race in the newly created World Championship of Drivers.
It took place on the weekend of 29–31 July 1983 at the Silverstone Circuit. The race was split into two races. Entering Stowe Corner on Lap 5, Norman Brown's Suzuki slowed with a mechanical problem. The motorcycle stayed to the inside, but was hit by Peter Huber's Suzuki.
Total track length was approximately 3.7 miles (5.9 km), substantially longer than the 2.9 miles (4.7 km) of Silverstone's classic layout, and longer even than the current 3.2-mile (5.1 km) circuit design. This was the only Grand Prix event ever held on this track layout, as from 1949 onward Silverstone circuits used only the perimeter roads.
