The first to do so was the Snaefell Mountain Course, home of the Isle of Man TT, which also has the distinction, at almost 61 km long, of being the longest track which hosted a World Championship race. The TT Circuit Assen has the distinction of holding the most races, holding a Grand Prix every year (with the exception of 2020) since 1949.

Various different forms of race track have been used throughout the history of the World Championship; purpose-built race tracks such as Suzuka, road tracks such as Spa-Francorchamps and city street tracks such as Montjuïc.
