The 2012 European Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race that was held at the Valencia Street Circuit in Valencia on 24 June 2012. It was the eighth round of the 2012 Formula One World Championship.
It was Fernando Alonso's second Grand Prix win in Spain after the 2006 Spanish Grand Prix held at Barcelona. Michael Schumacher finished third at the age of 43 years and 173 days, the oldest driver to climb to the podium since Jack Brabham's second-place finish at the 1970 British Grand Prix. It was Schumacher's best result since his comeback in 2010 and the final podium finish of his Formula One career.
