F1 Academy is F1's answer to W Series, an all-female racing series, with the intent of being in the official F1 ladder, below W Series and F3. This season will have 7 rounds of 3 races each with ART, Prema, Carlin, Campos and MP Motorsport committing to field 3 cars each. The car is a Tatuus, similar to what is currently being used in the regional F4 series. Calendar and lineup will be updated as it is announced. Lena Buhler is the first driver to be announced, for ART. Lineup: Quote: ART:
Lena Buhler Carrie Schreiner Chloe Grant Prema: Bianca Bustamante Chloe Chong Marta Garcia Campos: Nerea Martí Lola Lovinfosse Maite Cáceres Carlin: Jessica Edgar Abbi Pulling Megan Gilkes MP: Amna Al Qubaisi Hamda Al Qubaisi Emely de Heus |

An F1 Academy where the first announced driver is older than the F1 champion. OK... Bustamante (Prema) has now been announced, which is perhaps a better fit. |

Jessica Edgar (Jonny's cousin) is Carlin's first signing. 7th in GB4 last season, scored a podium. |

Nerea Martí takes a side step from W Series and joins Campos, strong championship contender. By the current logic, MP are probably going to sign someone Dutch. |

Another youngster joins ART, 24 year old Carrie Schreiner, who last drove single seaters in 2016. She's been doing well in GT's however and is a class winner of the N24. |

Abbi Pulling joins Carlin. Likely championship winner, if W Series performances are anything to go by. |

Calendar is out. Very compressed and apparently in standalone events and the only race that will support F1 is Austin. |

Is W Series coming back? I suppose this Academy series officially replaces them? |

I still don't get it why they can't merge them to create one 30-car-series instead of two series with 15 cars. One pileup at the start and you're left race with 10 cars. It's like watching Euroformula Open. *Yawn.* |

Doubt W Series will come back. FIA won't do anything to help it now that they have this championship. Like what they did with F3. |

Lola Lovinfosse joins Campos. Unimpressive in Spanish F4 but only 18. |

Susie Wolff will be the managing director of this. |

Maite Cáceres completes Campos. Very new to formulas, only did a few races in F4 USA last year. |

Megan Gilkes, race winner in W Series (non-championship) and GB4, closes Carlin. |

Chloe Chong to Prema. Girls on Track finalist, first car racing season, only 15. |

Amna and Hamda Al Qubaisi buy their way into MP. At least Hamda doesn't seem to be complete garbage, race winner in F4 UAE and podium finisher in Italian F4. |

Emely de Heus completes MP. She was pretty rubbish in W Series last year and F4 UAE this year. |

Chloe Grant closes ART. Another Girls on Track finalist, was in GB4 last year. |

Marta Garcia also "graduates" from W Series and completes the lineup with Prema. |
