What Can I Expect
Welcome to the Learner Driver Motorsport Academy! Traditionally aimed at under 17s, these experiences are also great for learner drivers of any age, or even those who want a refresher in driving skills.
The sessions, which take place at the London Motor Circuit, are all about building up confidence in a relaxed and fun way, away from the public roads, in a safe, controlled environment.
The minimum age for these sessions is 11 years old, with a minimum height of 4ft 8" (so they can reach the pedals). Cars are all dual-controlled, so both student and instructor have the power to control and stay in control!
The programme for the session includes a short welcome and briefing, before heading out to the awaiting car. Under the guidance of the highly-skilled instructor, you will be encouraged to get to grips with the car on the dedicated academy training area. After practicing, you will be encouraged to execute a few moves to show off your skills.
If you’re buying this Academy voucher for an under 17 year old, accompanying Mums and Dads are welcome to watch from the pit-lane and we're sure you will be bursting with pride as your little one drives smoothly around the arena.
A quick debrief from the instructor rounds off the experience and hopefully you will be awarded your Learner Driver Motorsport Academy Licence!
