The 2000 British Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held on 23 April 2000 at the Silverstone Circuit. It was the fourth round of the 2000 Formula One World Championship. McLaren's David Coulthard won the race after starting from fourth position. His teammate Mika Häkkinen finished second and Ferrari's Michael Schumacher was third.

Going into the event, Michael Schumacher led the World Drivers' Championship while Ferrari led the World Constructors' Championship. Rubens Barrichello, his teammate, took pole position after setting the quickest lap time in the qualifying session. Barrichello led for the first 30 laps before failing to upshift and being passed by Coulthard on lap 31. When Coulthard made his sole pit stop two laps later, Barrichello retook the lead until he spun and retired on lap 35 with a hydraulics issue. Five laps later Coulthard regained the lead, which he held for the rest of the race. Despite gearbox problems, he finished 1.4 seconds ahead of his teammate Häkkinen. It was the second time that Coulthard had won the British Grand Prix and was the seventh victory of his F1 career.
