The all-female F1 Academy series will kick off in Jeddah this weekend its second-year quest to propel women racers towards Formula 1.
Marta Garcia won last year’s inaugural F1 Academy championship and has since moved, along with runner-up Lena Buhler, to the 2024 Formula Regional European Championship.
Several changes have been implemented in the series, among them the incorporation of FIA superlicence points, a prerequisite for entering Formula 1.
But the most noteworthy development is the closer bond forged between the series and Formula 1.
This year each of the 10 F1 teams will sponsor an F1 Academy driver, while the remaining five drivers in the championship will receive support from other partners.
The girls are ready to unleash their inner warriors!
