Life Insurance for Motorsport / Car / Cart Racing & Rallying

Overview

Taking part in Motorsport (& Racing) will impact on your life insurance cover and the consequences are commonly more than marginal.

Motorsport in all its forms also see much higher risks than many other sports.

Different mainstream insurers have developed different responses to covering many types of Motorsport.

If you have not been declined life insurance by the mainstream insurers, you might find cover with some mainstream insurers.

If you have been declined cover or not, then Pulse may well be able to help.

Factors affecting Life Insurance

Broadly speaking, the price and availability of life insurance cover for those involved in Motorsport will depend on a number of factors:-

  • the exact type of all racing / rallying you take part in and where you race
  • the level of sport you compete at
  • the vehicle/motorcycle you race
  • the frequency and nature and locations of your competitive activity and training
  • any unusual aspects of racing / sting / driving
  • your driving / accident / safety history
  • your age
  • your experience and the technical support / maintenance arrangements
  • and if you have any medical conditions

Depending on the above, there may be some or even significant additional loading to your life insurance premiums.

Pulse are specialists in finding cover for those participating in many forms of Motorsport; often where many insurers are declining to quote.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call us on 01280-431280.

Your Health Background

It is often true that professional sport means competitors are very fit and healthy. However, there are many who compete whilst having a medical condition. It is possible your health may have as much or more impact on Life Insurance availability. You can begin by reviewing the dedicated details about many medical condition(s) on this website.

You can / should declare any medical conditions to us when you make an enquiry. Again, we have prepared specific questions for many conditions. If you are in perfect health, you will be asked to confirm this on your actual Life Insurance application.
