• MAYA WEUG is making a strategic team switch to MP Motorsport for 2025 after a standout third-place finish in F1 Academy last year. Her season finale win at Yas Marina plus six additional podiums proved she’s got the pace to challenge for the championship. Now she’s betting on the Dutch team’s proven junior formula expertise to get her that elusive title.
• AURELIA NOBELS is staying put with ART Grand Prix but bringing fresh energy to her sophomore F1 Academy campaign. The Brazilian Ferrari Driver Academy member gets the backing of Puma again, and her confidence is sky-high about making a “significant step up in performance.” Sometimes continuity beats change, especially when you’re still finding your groove.
• Both drivers will compete across 14 races supporting Formula 1 Grand Prix weekends, giving them maximum exposure on motorsport’s biggest stage. WEUG gets to sport the same livery as Leclerc and Hamilton while representing Ferrari colors through MP Motorsport – talk about motivation. The series is expanding its testing program too, so these women get more seat time to show what they’re made of.
