About F1 Academy

The 2026 season features seven rounds, starting in Shanghai and ending in Las Vegas. The season is underway, with races running alongside Formula 1 weekends.
What F1 Academy is about
F1 Academy was launched in 2023 to create a pathway for women in motorsport. The series uses Tatuus T-421 cars with 165 horsepower engines. Each team is paired with a Formula 1 team for technical and marketing support. The 2026 grid features drivers from the F1 team academies, plus independent entries. The racing is competitive. The cars are identical, so driver talent makes the difference. The format includes one 40-minute free practice session and a 30-minute qualifying on Fridays, with two 30-minute races on Saturday and Sunday.
