History of Motorsports Awareness Month
Motorsports Awareness Month began in 2013 in the United States as a way to spotlight the motorsports industry and those who power it.
It was introduced with support from industry leaders, racing teams, safety organizations, and policymakers.
The aim was to raise awareness about the impact of motorsports on innovation, public safety, and job creation.

From its launch, the month focused on education and outreach. Organizers encouraged fans, drivers, and engineers to share their experiences.
