De 1988 British Grand Prix werd gewonnnen door Ayrton Senna van McLaren. Ondanks pole positie getrained te hebben in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, kon Gerhard Berger dit niet omzetten in een overwinning.
De race in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland was ronde 8 van 16 van het 1988 seizoen.
The 1988 British Grand Prix (formally the XLI Shell Oils British Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on 10 July 1988 at the Silverstone Circuit, Silverstone. It was the eighth race of the 1988 Formula One season. The 65-lap race was won by McLaren driver Ayrton Senna after he started from third position. Nigel Mansell finished second for the Williams team and Benetton driver Alessandro Nannini came in third.
To commemorate the 40th anniversary of the opening of the Silverstone Circuit, many facilities had been added to the circuit, including a Press Centre complex, an internal ring road, debris fencing, wide screens to show live action as broadcast by the BBC, and a 600-metre long hospitality tent for corporate guests. However, the weekend was overshadowed by the death of the RAC Chief Executive Peter Hammond in a car crash on the way to the track.
