In a bold bid to transform the motorsport landscape, the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) has unveiled its brand-new Disability and Accessibility Mentorship Programme. This forward-thinking initiative is set to break down barriers and offer vital support to individuals with disabilities and accessibility challenges looking to carve out a niche in the fast-paced world of motorsport.
Designed with inclusivity at its core, the programme pairs budding talents with seasoned mentors who are well-versed in the industry. These experts will provide bespoke guidance, sharing industry insights and hands-on advice to help participants navigate the often challenging path to a successful motorsport career.
The aim?
To empower a new generation of professionals by ensuring that passion and determination are never hindered by physical limitations.
The FIA’s latest venture comes at a time when the motorsport sector is increasingly recognising the value of diversity and the importance of creating accessible career pathways. By offering structured mentorship and tailored support, the programme not only opens doors for under-represented talent but also enriches the industry with fresh perspectives and innovative ideas.
At Formula Careers, we’re excited to see such a significant step towards a more inclusive future in motorsport. Our mission is to help aspiring professionals and career changers find their way into motorsport, and initiatives like these truly resonate with our vision.

It not only promises invaluable professional development but also underscores a commitment to breaking down longstanding barriers within the industry.
