It’s that time of year again, the day we celebrate our dads, father figures, and male figures who helped drag us up in this world.
Maybe you’re a Dad yourself, in which case you can pass this on to those concerned as a subtle hint of how you’d like to be celebrated.
If not, please take this as a guideline for those of you who are lucky enough who have Dads who like cars and motorsport culture.
Hopefully, there are more than a few ideas in here that will make him smile when the big day comes around on June 19th. As we are an automotive culture based website, it’s only fair we focus on our expertise.
Every gift you find on this list will be related to the wonderful world of motorsport and cars in general. So without further ado…

£ Varies
One of the higher ticket items on this list but definitely one of the most memorable. We’re talking about tickets to a live F1 Grand Prix of course, Silverstone to be precise.
The question is, how much do you really love your dad? Just kidding. If you loved him that much you’d fly him out for Monaco.
Triple Supercar Driving Blast with High-Speed Passenger Ride
£79

For only £79, you’ll have the choice of driving three elite supercars for three miles each around the track of your choice. We can’t think of much better for a devoted petrolhead.
£24
Hunt the Shunt was the original Formula One playboy and depending on how old your Dad is, probably one of his favourite drivers.
If you’re looking for something stylish but still on the relatively inexpensive side; you can’t go wrong with this James Hunt helmet t-shirt. Showcasing the drivers' classic helmet from his driving heyday, it’s an awesome gift of nostalgia for any older Formula 1 fan.

There’s also, of course, the alternative option of streaming, but as a gift you can’t go wrong with a physical DVD or Blu-Ray. This is the BAFTA-winning documentary Senna, which if you haven’t seen yet, just where have you been?
As you can probably guess, the documentary centers around Formula One legend Ayrton Senna. But to be honest, even if you aren’t a fan of F1, you’d probably still enjoy this masterful piece from director Asif Kapadia. A perfect gift for any dad who loved the Brazilian maestro.
