F1 Academy Locks Down All 10 Teams Plus CADILLAC Through 2027 in Major Win

November 13, 2025

• We finally have the commitment we’ve been waiting for – all 10 Formula 1 teams have locked in multi-year partnerships with F1 Academy, with Cadillac joining as the 11th supporter in 2027. This isn’t just corporate box-ticking; it’s real investment in building a legitimate pathway for women drivers, and SUSIE WOLFF rightfully called it a “powerful message about the future.”
• The series smartly adjusted its two-season participation limit, allowing standout drivers to compete for a third year if they show “strong potential for continued growth.” Translation: they’re not going to boot women just because of arbitrary timelines if they’re clearly progressing toward bigger opportunities. It’s the kind of flexibility that shows they’re actually thinking about development, not just checking diversity boxes.
• Cadillac team principal Graeme Lowdon made it clear they don’t want to just “be at the end of a conveyor belt” for drivers – they’re investing in building talent from the ground up. When a new F1 team immediately commits to women’s development before they’ve even turned a wheel in F1, that tells you something important about where the sport is heading and who gets it.
