Racing Pride, a European-based charity that promotes LGBTQ+ inclusivity within all branches of the motorsports world, announced its expansion to North America with a number of new ambassadors and partners within the industry.
The ambassadors include both industry professionals and racing drivers:
This is awesome news.
It sucks that this has to be a thing, that there has to be organizations to combat homophobia or sexism or anything like that (referencing some of the stories about female drivers getting involved etc)
Tom's a class act.
I agree that it's a shame that, you know *wildly gesticulating at the state the world*
It's sad that this has to exist, but I'm glad it does. I'm ordering a sticker now.
What ever it takes to give everyone a place at the table. I just want to hang out and do car things with everybody.
Also awesome to hear about Out Motorsports' inclusion. GRM is well represented! Saw the news earlier on Motorsport.com
Awesome. I had him autograph a Sportscar magazine at a TNIA years ago. He was on the cover and I said I wanted it for when he became famous. This was still fairly early in his pro career.
In reply to Jerry :
Tom's like our own rock star. In all seriousness, I love seeing our friends sign autographs. Hopefully it helps justify all of the sacrifices that they have made.
My sticker arrived today.
The guy is a great driver and a snappy dresser. I think this is the first time I've ever seen him without sunglasses on.

Tom is a great guy and a snappy dresser and, yeah, a rare non-glasses shot. I took that in victory lane at Daytona.
