Australian Motorsport has not had any noticeable participation by our Indigenous people.
Motorsport, like any sport, has enormous potential to provide a source of enjoyment, motivation and pride, to those who participate, be it as a driver, mechanic, race engineer or event official.
The Racing Together project is designed to identify and then assist suitable candidates from a cohort of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youths of both genders, in the 12 to 16 years age group, and provide them with an opportunity to pursue a career in our sport, as either a driver or a member of a race team.
In 2022, Racing Together received the inaugural FIA President's Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Award from FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem. The honour recognises outstanding commitment to diverse and inclusive practices and activities that foster equitable, sustainable, and measurable change.
Supercheap Auto is a proud partner of this community initiative, supplying financial sponsorship and products for the students to go racing.
