Racing Pride is a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ) rights movement working in the motorsport industry to promote and champion inclusivity across the sport, and amongst its technological and commercial partners.[2][3]
The organisation was founded in 2019 in partnership with LGBT rights charity Stonewall.[4]
Racing Pride has announced a number of Driver Ambassadors from across a range of motorsport disciplines to improve the visibility of LGBT people in the industry and to increase inclusivity amongst racing fans and organisers.[5]
Those drivers who have already been announced as Racing Pride Ambassadors include Richard Morris,[6] Charlie Martin,[7][8][9] Sarah Moore[10][11] and Abbie Eaton.[12]
The organisation has also gone on to partner with a number of motorsport organisations, such as the British Automobile Racing Club,[13] the British Racing and Sports Car Club, Formula Student[14] and Team Parker Racing.
