British indoor karting organisation TeamSport is doing its bit to further female representation in motorsport and together with Motorsport UK
In 2023, TeamSport piloted a program for girls aged 8-12 in six venues, leading to a 265% increase in female participation in the British Indoor Karting Championships. The collaboration will continue in 2024 with the Discover Your Drive Race Academy to identify talent through Discover Your Drive Days. TeamSport teamed up with F1 Academy and Motorsport UK to support young girls aged 8-12 in getting into motorsport. Their goal is to see more females in motorsport, even aspiring for Formula One. Research shows that only 13% of karting competitors are girls, so initiatives like TeamSport’s are crucial to increasing female participation at all levels of motorsport.
