Sir Lewis Hamilton: Formula 1 management on Tuesday announced the introduction of a formal Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) charter, which has been agreed by all ten teams, Formula 1 and the FIA, to build a more diverse and inclusive place to work. The charter has been created with support from the Royal Academy of Engineering, which, alongside Sir Lewis Hamilton, delivered The Hamilton Commission’s original report in 2021, the stakeholders informed in a release on Tuesday.

The charter results from the report’s recommendation that the motorsport sector commits to improving diversity and inclusion across all organisations. The charter’s implementation will also be supported by Formula 1 partner Mission 44, the charity set up by Lewis Hamilton. Mission 44 has also recently released research that indicates that programmes including pledges, commitments, or codes, drive accountability.

The sport is committed to creating, supporting, and delivering on actions, measures, and outcomes, to build a more diverse and inclusive workplace. Over recent years every team and stakeholder in Formula 1 has acted and implemented initiatives to improve diversity, access, and opportunity within the sport.
