Partner Profiles

Barbados Motoring Federation
Affiliated to the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), which rules the sport worldwide, the Barbados Motoring Federation (BMF) is the island’s governing body for motor sport; it also represents the interests of its Member Clubs in discussions with Government departments which facilitate the sport in the island, in particular the Ministry of Transport, Works & Maintenance, which permits road closures for an agreed number of events each year. Away from motor sport, the BMF affiliate which answers the FIA Mobility remit is the Barbados Automobile Association (BAA), which is an executive committee member of the Government’s Barbados Road Safety Council.

Caribbean Sim Motorsport
Caribbean Sim Motorsport became affiliated to the BMF in 2021. Based in Barbados, CSM’s goal is to be a low cost, albeit very competitive, avenue for the average person to compete in motor sport. Digital motor sport offers considerable flexibility as it relates to the many disciplines and events that can be organised. Notwithstanding its ‘virtual’ nature, it is important to make this form of motor sport as competitive and as well-organised as the ‘real thing'. CSM certainly envisages its platform as a next step to real-world competitive motor sport, which is a key factor in its overall approach.
