Formula 1 racing has become the latest major American company to buckle to pressure from far-left activists and accept new diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) standards.

According to the Washington Free Beacon, the new rules will impact Formula 1, the FIA, and all ten F1 teams. F1’s DEI charter was co-written by the Royal Academy of Engineering, which first provided a report on recommended DEI standards for the Hamilton Commission in 2021.

“As a sport that prides itself on its unrelenting high performance, Formula 1 recognizes the importance that diversity plays in introducing new perspectives and ideas, and in driving innovation, culture, and business results,” the statement on Formula 1’s website reads.

Stefano Domenicali, the president and CEO of Formula 1, issued his own statement saying that “our sport is rightly recognized for its elite performance and innovation, and we are clear that the only way to maintain and improve those exceptional standards is to welcome diversity of thought, ideas, and experiences.”

“The sport is fiercely competitive, and we’re all committed to employing the very best talent,” Domenicali continued. “We know from The Hamilton Commission report that there are opportunities for us to work collectively to both find and nurture that talent, and across the sport significant change has already been put in place.”

“Formula 1 took the findings of The Hamilton Commission in 2021 seriously, and since then the sport has created a range of initiatives to increase diversity,” said Hayaatun Sillem, Chief Executive of the Royal Academy of Engineering.

Among the measures included will be fully-backed engineering scholarships, apprenticeships, and internships focused on minorities, as well as the creation of a new F1 Academy.
