In his post on X, Smith wrote: “Fantastic to host @F1 global CEO & President Stefano Domenicali in Parliament today for a cross-party discussion on the future of motorsport in the UK. As Chair of @ParliamentMotor I’m passionate about ensuring the UK remains the global hub of the sport.”
The discussion was broad and constructive, aiming to strengthen the UK’s role on the international stage. The country plays a leading role in global motorsport, both through its innovative technologies and as a reference point for teams, drivers, and engineers.
Stefano Domenicali’s presence in the UK Parliament underscores the increasingly close relationship between Formula 1 and national industrial policy. Seven out of ten F1 teams have chosen to base their operations in the UK, further cementing the country’s position as the technical and sporting heart of the championship.
The F1 CEO did not make any official statements during the meeting. However, his visit can be seen as a clear signal of openness toward a future in which motorsport and public policy become increasingly integrated to support innovation and sustainability.
This meeting is part of a broader framework of cooperation between Formula 1 and government institutions, particularly in areas such as ecological transition and sustainable development.
