At the Silverstone Museum this morning. Any petrolheads following me know how much I love motorsport. As Chairman of the APPG for Motorsport and Formula 1, I’m proud to see initiatives like the STEM Pitstop inspiring the next generation. This scheme will visit schools around the country - for free - inspiring pupils into stem learning.
Motorsport and Formula 1 are huge British success stories. £16bn to the economy and 50,000 jobs, and the future talent pipeline is vital to keeping us at the top. Today I saw young people handling real F1 components, learning about the science, tech, and career paths behind it. This is exactly the kind of inspiration the industry needs.
