F1续签工程奖学金并发布首份社会影响报告
F1以240万英镑资金续签工程奖学金,承诺为期三年,并同期发布首份社会影响报告。
F1以240万英镑资金续签工程奖学金,作出明确的三年承诺。
这一消息与F1首份社会影响报告同时公布,报告称已有来自71个国家的超过50万名年轻人参与并受益于F1的教育项目。
F1的奖学金项目于2021年启动,为弱势背景学生覆盖全部高等教育学费和生活费。
该项目迄今已资助48名学生,此次续签意味着每年将颁发10个新奖学金,直至2028/29学年(含该学年)。学生将就读于斯特拉思克莱德大学、帝国理工学院、剑桥大学、牛津大学和意大利艾米利亚-罗马涅汽车大学(Muner)。
一位牛津大学一年级F1工程奖学金学生曾说:“言语无法描述这项奖学金在多大程度上改变了我的生活。
“能够支付牛津的全部费用是我第一年学业成功的关键原因;我得以专注于课程,而不必担心能否负担下一顿饭。
“我想向捐赠者和管理委员会表示万分感谢;我希望充分利用大学时光,而通过这项奖学金,我更有能力做到这一点。”
报告称,全部24场主办大奖赛都推动了社会外展项目,去年的10支车队以及F1和FIA也各自开展了此类项目。
报告中的其他亮点还包括推出F1学习部门计划,该计划与英国文化协会合作,于去年一月启动后已在英国、南非、印度和巴西的学校推广。
这项“跨国”学习计划包括受STEM启发的项目和编程竞赛,旨在帮助7至16岁、特意从代表性不足背景中选拔的学生培养计算思维能力。
F1表示,来自700多所学校的超过15万名学生参与了该计划,该计划在2026年和2027年将扩展到中国、墨西哥和西班牙,再吸纳25万名学生。
在规模较小但更有针对性的层面上,2022年与社会流动商业伙伴慈善机构合作推出的“下一届大奖赛”为学生提供了在竞争环境中推介新F1举办地的机会。
自启动以来,该项目已为超过600名学生提供了实习机会——其中126个名额是在2025年获得的——并为F1赢得了英国社会流动奖的创新奖,其一位校友现已成为“四大”会计师事务所普华永道的管理咨询培训助理。

Formula 1 has renewed its Engineering Scholarships with a clear three-year commitment via £2.4million of funding.
That was announced alongside the publication of F1's first social impact report, which said more that 500,000 young people from 71 countries had accessed and benefitted from F1's educational programmes.
F1's scholarship programme was launched in 2021 and covers full higher-education tuition fees and living costs for students from underrepresented backgrounds.
It has to date supported 48 students and its renewal means 10 new scholarships will be awarded each year up to and including the 2028/29 academic year. They will study at the University of Strathclyde, Imperial College London, the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford, and the Motorvehicle University of Emilia-Romagna (Muner) in Italy.
One first-year F1 engineering scholar at the University of Oxford was quoted as saying: "Words cannot describe how much this scholarship has changed my life.
"The ability to pay for all the costs of Oxford has been a key reason that my first year has been successful; I have been able to focus on my course without having to worry about whether I can afford my next meal.
"I would like to say a massive thank you to the donors and board of management; I hope to make the most of my time at university, and through the scholarship I am much more capable of doing so."
The report said that all 24 host grands prix had facilitated social outreach programmes, as had each of last year's 10 teams in addition to F1 and the FIA.
Among the other highlights in the report were the launch of F1's Learning Sectors programme, in partnership with the British Council, which was rolled out across schools in the UK, South Africa, India and Brazil upon its launch last January.
This "cross-country" learning initiative included STEM-inspired projects and coding competitions to help students - aged seven to 16, and intentionally drawn from underrepresented backgrounds - develop computational thinking skills.
F1 said more than 150,000 students from 700-plus schools had taken part in the programme, which across 2026 and 2027 is due to expand into China, Mexico, and Spain - taking in another 250,000 students.
On a smaller but more-targeted scale, The Next Grand Prix - launched in 2022, in partnership with the Social Mobility Business Partnership charity - has given students the opportunity to pitch a new F1 location in a competitive environment.
This has given more than 600 students placements since its launch - 126 of those came in 2025 - and won F1 the Innovation Award at the UK Social Mobility Awards, with one of its alumnus now a management consultant trainee associate at 'Big Four' accounting firm PwC.
