BWT Alpine F1 Team confirms 21-year-old Nina Gademan as driver in F1 Academy 2025

BWT Alpine F1 Team has confirmed Dutch driver Nina Gademan as a driver for next season in the F1 Academy. The 21-year-old talent will face her first full season in this all-female racing class in 2025. In 2024, she impressed in the fourth race of the season at the Zandvoort circuit. She was given the opportunity to compete with a Wild Card and crossed the line in fourth place in the first race and tenth in the second. This was good for a total of thirteen points in the championship.
 

Previous successes and progress

Gademan has built an impressive resume. She won the 2019 FIA Motorsport Games Karting Slalom Cup for the Dutch team. In 2024, she made her debut in the single-seater class in the British Formula 4 Championship. In the fourth race of the season, she achieved her first podium as a rookie at the Thruxton circuit.
 

Preparing for the F1 Academy season

Before Gademan begins her season in F1 Academy, she will first participate in the Formula Winter Series with Hitech GP. Between Jan. 30 and March 9, she will race at circuits such as Portimão, Valencia, Aragon and Barcelona. This series serves as an important step in her development as a driver.
 

Nina Gademan, BWT Alpine F1 Team F1 Academy Driver: “I am incredibly proud to be representing BWT Alpine Formula One Team in the 2025 F1 Academy season. This is a moment I once thought might never come, and it is a dream come true. Having the support of a team with such an incredible legacy means the world to me. I am deeply grateful for Alpine’s trust and belief in me, and I can’t wait to make the 2025 season an unforgettable chapter in this journey.”
 

Oliver Oakes, Team Principal: “We are happy to have Nina coming on board as our F1 Academy driver selection for the 2025 season. It was great to see her step up into single seaters at the start of 2024 and to claim points on her F1 Academy debut as the wildcard in Zandvoort. We are excited to see what she can do in the series next year. Nina will be a fantastic addition to our line-up of junior drivers, and we look forward to working with her throughout 2025.”
