The training includes various types of motorsports disciplines to provide for the identification of principles applicable to all, as well as those unique to each discipline. The motorsports medicine fellow will not only be exposed to practical approaches to the evaluation, management and rehabilitation of injuries sustained by participants of the sport, but also to post-crash investigation and identification of measures to prevent injury and promote safety. Training involves coordination with multiple motorsports series to provide for diverse experiences throughout the industry.

The fellowship offers a unique opportunity to learn about various aspects of health care delivery during mass gathering events. Since motorsports involves spectators, medical directors of motorsports facilities are responsible for the care of spectators who become ill or injured at the facility. The motorsports fellow is trained in planning for the provision of medical care at racing facilities. This planning focuses on on-site care, identification of local resources for individuals requiring advanced management and interfacing with local EMS, public safety agencies and local hospitals.
