The 2023 FDA Scouting World Finals was one of the most closely contested of all time. In terms of the results, both on track and when it came to the various attitudinal tests, four of the six drivers were pretty much at the same level and therefore, it was not easy for the Ferrari Driver Academy experts to choose a winner. In the end, that honour went to Dutchman René Lammers, who was also the least experienced of the bunch.

16 year-old Maya Weug is about to make history with Ferrari. The Dutch girl, born in Spain, with a Belgian mother and a Dutch father, is the first woman driver to join the Ferrari Driver Academy. Maya outshone the other girls at the evaluation camp which took place last week at the Scuderia headquarters in Maranello, as the final stage of the FIA “Girls on Track-Rising Stars” programme.

The Ferrari Driver Academy is pleased to announce that two new drivers are joining the Maranello marque’s racing driver training and development programme, which has now been operational for eleven years. The drivers in question are Arthur Leclerc and Dino Beganovic, whose 2019 performances showed they have what it takes to be part of the FDA.
