Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
- Jaguar TCS Racing celebrate International Women’s Day by showcasing varied roles of women in the team
- The British team host 30 girls at their headquarters, giving students an inspiring behind-the-scenes tour, interactive workshop and immersive technical experiences
- Photography and video content spotlighting women across commercial and technical, created by an all-female crew, also goes live today
- The activity is part of Jaguar TCS Racing’s wider Race to Inspire mission which aims to inspire and support the next generation into motorsport
Jaguar TCS Racing are today hosting young women at their technical facility in Kidlington, Oxfordshire. 30 girls from across the UK are due to join the British race team at their state-of-the-art innovation centre, which opened last year.
The students, aged between 11 and 18, will take part in a series of interactive experiences – immersing them in the technology behind the Jaguar I-TYPE 6 race car - along with discussions and workshops with some of the women in the Jaguar TCS Racing team, from a variety of commercial and technical roles.
Visiting students were via the FIA Girls on Track programme, which focuses on increasing female participation in motorsport; TCS’ Ignite my Future, which is a pioneering effort to empower educators through a transdisciplinary approach that integrates computational thinking into core subjects; and Females in Motorsport, a volunteer-run platform.
As part of their Race to Inspire mission, Jaguar TCS Racing aim to encourage young women and girls into motorsport and STEM careers through education initiatives, school visits and events.
In addition, Jaguar TCS Racing are celebrating the women who have each played their part in the team’s success. Women from the commercial team – including Events, Business Operations, Partnerships and Finance – and the technical team – including Engineering, Procurement and Programme Management – came together for an empowering content shoot, with the aim to inspire inclusion by illustrating how positive a career in motorsport can be.
The content was created by an all-female crew – photographer, videographer, producer and editor – to equally celebrate women in the creative industries.
International Women’s Day gives us the opportunity to celebrate some of the incredible women who contribute to Jaguar TCS Racing’s success. By showcasing these women, we hope to inspire young girls to consider a career in motorsport, or within JLR more widely.
JAMES BARCLAYMANAGING DIRECTOR, JLR MOTORSPORT AND JAGUAR TCS RACING TEAM PRINCIPAL
Back in 2016 when I helped set up Jaguar TCS Racing, I was the only woman within our small team, so I’m very proud that today we have a whole host of talented women in a variety of roles, who each play their part in our success. It can sometimes feel like a male dominated world, both in motorsport and in leadership, so it’s really important that we have brought so many young girls and women into our facility today to learn more about the women in our team and their roles. This is just one example of our Race to Inspire mission which sees us aim to inspire future generations into motorsport and STEM careers within the team.
