The 2016 British motorcycle Grand Prix was the twelfth round of the 2016 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season.

Maverick Viñales took his first victory in MotoGP and the first since the 2014 Malaysian Moto2 round.

This race marked Suzuki's first victory since the 2007 French Grand Prix.

The race was red-flagged on the first lap due to an accident involving Loris Baz and Pol Espargaró; for the subsequent restart, the race distance was shortened from 20 to 19 laps.
