GRRL! SUMMARY:
- Ferrari lands 17-year-old Danish driver ALBA LARSEN for their 2026 F1 Academy campaign, building on MAYA WEUG’s championship runner-up performance from 2025. This isn’t just another signing – it’s Ferrari doubling down on their commitment to developing female talent in a landscape where all ten F1 teams are finally backing women’s racing progression.
- LARSEN is taking on an ambitious triple-header schedule, competing simultaneously in F1 Academy, F4 UAE Championship, and F4 British Championship. After a solid seventh-place debut season with ten points finishes across 14 rounds, she’s leveraging her MP Motorsport experience to make the jump to Ferrari – though that first podium remains tantalizingly out of reach.
- The 2026 F1 Academy calendar reads like a greatest hits of global racing venues: China, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Silverstone, Zandvoort, COTA, and Las Vegas across seven rounds. With Ferrari’s historic backing and LARSEN’s determination to “give everything for the Scuderia,” we’re watching a young driver position herself perfectly in the pathway from F1 Academy’s two-year limit toward the Formula 4 stepping stone.
UPCOMING:
- F1 Academy 2026 Season Opener – China
- F4 UAE Championship 2026
- F4 British Championship 2026
