 The New Zealand SpeedSport Scholarship Program_


The NZ SpeedSport Scholarship programme is now THE most successful programme for young driver development in New Zealand.

The annual SpeedSport Scholarship provides the winner with a two year entry programme into single-seater racing.

The first season is a fully funded drive in the New Zealand Formula First championship with the championship winning Sabre Motorsport team.

In the second year (optional), the scholarship winner is invited back, with the assistance of our ‘Friends of the Scholarship’ programme, to have a second season in the Formula First national series. The second year involves activities such as sponsorship training, PR and media, physical and mental fitness - activities outside the race car that are vital to the growth and development of these young sports stars.

Read about last year's winner, Nick Cassidy.
