Multi-national lottery-led entertainment company Allwyn and Formula 1 have created the F1® Allwyn Global Community Award. The partnership will see community-focused initiatives “across the world of Formula 1” being spotlighted and celebrated on a global stage.

In addition winning initiatives will each receive a €100,000 donation from Allwyn to transform further communities around the world.

The first winner will be presented at the Formula 1® Heineken Dutch Grand Prix 2025 on 31 August. Three additional winners will be chosen later this season, recognising local initiatives at the home of Formula 1 races in the USA (Austin and Las Vegas) and Mexico.

The F1® Allwyn Global Community Award is part of the multi-year partnership between Formula 1 and Allwyn, reflecting “a shared commitment to driving positive change and giving back to the communities in which they operate”.

To be eligible winners must demonstrate “a meaningful contribution to society away from the racetrack, which could include advancements in education, culture, wellbeing or sustainability”.

For each race, the local promoter will identify Formula 1-linked community initiatives such as those run by teams, partners and media, which have had an impact in their country. A panel of three judges from Allwyn, Formula 1 and a local representative will agree the winner, who, in addition to the donation, will receive a trophy and a chance to visit a Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Allwyn hopes to extend the Award to cover more races in the 2026 season.

Stefano Domenicali, President & CEO of Formula 1 said:

“It is a pillar of our sport to leave a positive legacy where we race and for many years, we’ve worked with the promoters and regional organisations to do just that, from inviting children from local schools to the track to encourage them to consider a role in motorsport, through to funding education initiatives and welcoming local community outlets and charities to be part of the event…

“We will give the local initiatives that go the extra mile for making their communities and make the world a better place the recognition and global platform they deserve.”
