CHLOE CHAMBERS Eyes Title Fight at Miami as Netflix Spotlight Hits F1 Academy

April 30, 2025

• CHLOE CHAMBERS is making serious title noise in her second F1 Academy season, sitting third in the standings with three podiums in four races after switching to Red Bull Ford backing. The American rookie sensation who delivered Haas’ first F1 Academy podium in Miami last year has elevated her game, grabbing her first pole position in Jeddah and trailing championship leader MAYA WEUG by just 12 points. With maximum two seasons allowed in the series, this is her shot.
• The Miami weekend represents the perfect storm for CHAMBERS – returning to the track where she scored that breakthrough P3 finish from P7 on the grid, racing in front of American fans who’ve embraced F1 Academy drivers with unprecedented enthusiasm, and doing it all just as the Netflix documentary “F1: The Academy” drops on May 28. The Reese Witherspoon-produced series promises to deliver the same “Drive to Survive effect” that transformed F1’s American audience, potentially catapulting women’s racing into the mainstream spotlight it deserves.
• What makes CHAMBERS’ story compelling isn’t just her Guinness World Record for fastest vehicle slalom or being the first woman to win in Formula Regional Oceania – it’s how she’s leveraging F1’s American boom to change perceptions. She went from explaining to teachers why she missed school for racing to friends actually understanding her world, a shift she credits to Drive to Survive’s cultural impact. Now backed by Fernando Alonso’s A14 Management and leading a Campos Racing team with two rookies, she’s positioned as both title contender and the face of American women’s motorsport heading into what she calls “the biggest weekend of my career.”
