How can we empower LGBTQ+ people to feel able to be themselves?
We asked attendees at our recent Accelerate Pride event to give their thoughts in just a word or two, and these were some of the most powerful answers.

Speakers and attendees ranged from #F1 and broader #motorsport 🏎️🏁 to automotive, other sports such as football ⚽️ and cycling 🚴, and those continuing to organise vital community #Pride events 🙌.
Our Accelerate Pride event at the British Motor Museum brought #LGBTQ+ people, allies, and change-makers together to have important conversations: about the challenges our community is facing, but also about hope, resilience, determination, and how we can support each other. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Yesterday, Diagonal MD @thebishf1.bsky.social co-hosted our client @racingpride.com's annual Accelerate Pride event 🎙️
Two other Diagonal clients also attended: Nichols Cars, which brought one of its stunning N1A, and Tamara Ivancova, who brought her revolutionary Elecy 4-wheeled eBike 🏎️
As a community and as allies, we must remember that visibility without protection is vulnerability and we must be there for our trans+ siblings. Because there is no pride for some of us without liberation for all of us 🏳️⚧️

Trans Day of Visibility is an important occasion for all trans+ people to feel empowered by the authenticity of being themselves - whether publicly or privately.

Accelerate Pride is a vital part of Racing Pride’s mission - bringing the motorsport, automotive, and LGBTQ+ communities together. In 2026 it’s important to have spaces to speak freely and support each other.
