The all-female F1 Academy series has agreed a partnership with global lifestyle brand Tommy Hilfiger.
Contract:
- Tommy Hilfiger will sponsor the entry of Spanish driver Nerea Martí
- The brand will also design and provide all F1 Academy staff uniform
Context:
Tommy Hilfiger becomes the latest brand to support the upcoming season of F1 Academy, with Charlotte Tilbury and Puma already on board. There will be five designated partner liveries this season, in addition to each car supported by a Formula One team, which means there are two partnerships still to be announced.
This adds to Tommy Hilfiger’s existing partnership with the Mercedes Formula One team, first signed back in 2018, as well as its personal endorsement of Lewis Hamilton and, more recently, George Russell.
Comment:
“Tommy Hilfiger is one of the most recognised global lifestyle brands, so it is a great honour to welcome them to F1 Academy as an official partner,” said Susie Wolff, managing director of F1 Academy.
“Tommy Hilfiger is fully invested in our mission to improve female representation in motorsport, and their global brand platform will appeal to those outside of the motorsport world and help us to reach new audiences.
“I would like to personally thank Tommy and his team for sharing our vision and supporting a talented young driver in Nerea Martí.”
Coming next:
The F1 Academy season gets underway in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in support of Formula One’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix from 7th to 9th March.
