FULL BIO: Alina Loibnegger
Austrian racer Alina Loibnegger is an emerging talent who recently signed with ART Grand Prix to compete in the 2024 F1 Academy season.
EARLY YEARS
Born in Graz, Austria, Alina was introduced to motorsports at an early age by her father Franz, a former motocross rider and mechanic. He built her first mini-bike when she was six years old, and their family weekends centered around motorsports activities. By age eight, she was competing in regional karting championships, often as the only girl on the grid.
EARLY SUCCESS
At age 10, Alina achieved a breakthrough when she placed third in the Styrian Karting Cup, proving herself against competitors who had initially dismissed her. Her father’s “learn by doing” coaching philosophy helped shape her fearless approach to racing, while growing up in Austria’s rich motorsport culture provided her with both inspiration and opportunity.

Loibnegger has expressed aspirations to compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship, aiming to combine endurance racing’s strategic complexity with her single-seater experience[2]. While she has acknowledged interest in Formula 1, she emphasizes the need to achieve consistent podium finishes before targeting higher tiers.
