Diverse & Inclusive Sport

Formula 1 is working to build a more diverse and inclusive sport by removing barriers, nurturing talent, and inspiring change.

What We’re Doing

Since we launched our strategy in 2019, we have achieved the following:

Launching in 2023, F1 Academy is an all-female driver category, which aims to help develop and prepare young female drivers to progress to higher levels of competition.
Announced a scholarship programme until 2025, paying for underrepresented students’ tuition and finances
Increased diversity across our presenting line-up
Internships through the F1 business to students from underrepresented backgrounds
F1, the F1 teams and the FIA are working together to drive STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) engagement through a series of STEM Challenge Days.
Hosted career insight days targeted at students from low-income households
