March 20, 2025

• Championship favorite DORIANE PIN returns for her final F1 Academy season with Prema after finishing second in 2024, bringing four race wins and proven speed to her title hunt. The French driver’s endurance racing credentials include wins at the 24 Hours of Spa, showing she’s got the complete package to finally claim that elusive championship crown.
• Defending third-place finisher MAYA WEUG moves from Prema to MP Motorsport for her final season, riding the momentum of her breakthrough victory in Abu Dhabi’s season finale. Meanwhile, race winner CHLOE CHAMBERS switches from Haas to Red Bull Ford, using her proven overtaking skills and race craft to target the championship with reverse grid formats back in play.
• The grid expands from 15 to 18 cars with new team Hitech joining, creating more opportunities for rising talent like British F4 standout ELLA LLOYD (McLaren) and returning driver CHLOE CHONG, who’s back after a year developing her skills in British F4’s unforgiving conditions. Fresh faces include Brazilian F4 podium-finisher RAFAELA FERREIRA and GB4 vice-champion ALISHA PALMOWSKI.
