Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 December 2024

Debate

75th Anniversary of Formula 1

Contribution

I think we are all proving to have our own teams today. Personally, I started with Damon Hill. Formula E is a significant development. We have seen the wider Formula 1 pipeline through Formula E and the also very important F1 Academy programme to encourage women to come through. There is also Mission 44 to encourage more diversity and engagement from every part of society. How Formula 1 can be a case for developing wider participation and engagement in a sustainable way needs to be celebrated. The Minister for Sport is meeting with the industry in January to talk about how we can frame that through the celebration of 75 years of Formula 1.
