KHLOE MCGILL Earns F1 Academy Spot After 7th Place British Championship Finish

November 2, 2025

• Ten-year-old KHLOE MCGILL from Scotland just earned a spot in the F1 Academy’s Discover Your Drive series after finishing seventh in the British championships – and she did it as literally the only girl in a field of 35 drivers. We’re talking about a kid who’s been holding her own against boys since she was six, regularly setting lap records and proving that talent doesn’t care about your gender.
• The numbers tell the story: KHLOE won British heats this season while being the sole female competitor in grids of 35-36 drivers. Her mom Jamie doesn’t sugarcoat the challenges, mentioning parents who couldn’t handle their boys getting beaten by a girl. But KHLOE’s response? She just keeps winning and focusing on her craft, because that’s what champions do when faced with outdated thinking.
• Now she’s heading to Abu Dhabi for the three-day F1 Academy series managed by former professional driver Susie Wolff – and she’s one of only two girls selected in her age group. With Lewis Hamilton as her inspiration and a track record that speaks for itself, KHLOE’s proving that the pipeline for female F1 talent is very much alive when young women get the support and opportunities they deserve.
