TRL Integrity Statement

Integrity will be the empowering cornerstone of ‘The Racing League’ (TRL).

The TRL will act with honesty and adhere to the highest standards of moral and ethical values. The miRunners vision is to utilise the TRL to re-launch a set of standards that will build trust and transparency in racing with mainstream audiences and assist in the creation of a new perception of racing publicly. We expect our actions to be consistent with our words and we hold ourselves accountable for our integrity statement.
