Widely considered the home of motorsports, the country has long been a breeding ground for future champions.

However, the transition from grassroots motorsports to single-seaters can seem daunting. Thankfully, with the help of various racing schools, the dream to compete might as well become a reality. In this article, we will take a look at three racing scholarships available in the United States of America (USA) that provide real motorsport funding opportunities.
