Tottenham Hotspur have announced that they have reached a 15-year strategic partnership with Formula 1 that will include the production of the world’s first in-stadium electric karting track below their stadium.
The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has already hosted NFL matches, rugby, music concerts and boxing since it opened almost four years ago.
The club have now confirmed that their partnership with Formula 1 will see the delivery of an electric karting facility and London’s longest indoor track, based below the South Stand of the 62,850-capacity venue.
It was explained that there will be separate tracks for both adults and juniors, as accredited by the National Karting Association, thus making the stadium a potential venue for national karting championship races.
The partnership will also help develop a new driver academy programme to help identify the next generation of F1 drivers.
One of the main aims will also focus on creating apprenticeships and career opportunities for young people in order to bring greater diversity to the motorsport industry
Spurs proudly announced that the latest development means that an estimated 5.9 billion people worldwide are interested in events held at their home ground, which equates to almost 80 per cent of the world’s population.

Spurs Web Opinion
This is a significant development for the club as it opens up an additional source of revenue and this once again demonstrates the various ways in which the stadium was futureproofed during its contraction. This partnership will likely add a significant amount to ENIC’s asking price during takeover talks with potential investors.
