If you’ve been following along with the news lately, you’ll know that the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix is fast approaching. The race will take place over 78 laps of the 3.337-kilometre Circuit de Monaco in Monte Carlo on Sunday, May 25th.

Introducing Disney to the competitive world of Formula 1 will mark an important turning point for the sport. According to Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer of Formula 1, “It fits perfectly with our strategy to step outside the world of sport and into a broader consumer market, and in return we’re introducing Disney to our 820 million fans worldwide.

Formula 1 has a massive fanbase — and it keeps growing. According to Disney, young fans are flocking to F1; data shows that more than 4 million children aged 8–12 now actively follow the sport across the EU and US, and 54% of followers on TikTok and 40% on Instagram are now under 25 years old. Who better to reintroduce to the Disney brand than children aged 8–12?
