Maya Weug executed a dominant drive in Zandvoort to claim her second win of the season, leading every lap to crucially close the gap to her title rival Doriane Pin. The Ferrari driver made the most of starting on pole position to secure her second podium of the weekend, with the second-biggest winning margin in F1 Academy history of 7.3s.

F1 Academy put up a strong showing at Zandvoort as the hard-fighting pack came back from the winter break to compete at the challenging venue in unpredictable but mostly dry conditions. PREMA Racing wrapped up the Dutch weekend with a first-time win for home hero Nina Gademan and a good haul of points for championship leader Doriane Pin.

F1 Academy will be the first series to go back on track after the summer break for PREMA Racing, and will do so in a classic destination, Zandvoort, which has been part of its schedule since year one. The popular Dutch Grand Prix will bring in thousands of highly passionate fans, and supporting Formula 1, the F1 Academy drivers are motivated to get the job done in front of such a great crowd.

The battle for supremacy in the Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by FIA is poised to resume this weekend (July 26-27) as the UK’s premier single-seater series heads to the home of the Formula 1 Dutch Grand Prix, Zandvoort, boasting a record-equalling 27-car grid.

PREMA Racing posted extremely positive results in the fourth round of  F1 Academy in a new track for the series, Montreal. The weekend featured three races to make up for the one cancelled in Miami, and in the opening race, which used the Miami grid, Doriane Pin capitalized on a contact between two competitors to cruise to a brilliant win.
 

Today, F1 Academy announced that Hitech Grand Prix will join the grid and operate three cars from the 2025 season, expanding the grid to 18 cars.

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.

Nina Gademan certainly made an impression on her F1 ACADEMY debut in Zandvoort. On the cusp of a podium in both races, the Dutch racer put on a memorable showing, becoming the first Wild Card entry to score points.

History is set to be made at ROKiT British F4 certified by the FIA this weekend as eight female drivers, including five current F1 Academy drivers, line up on the grid, marking the highest-ever level of female participation in the Championship. F1 Academy drivers Bianca Bustamante, Jessica Edgar, Aurelia Nobels, Carrie Schreiner and Abbi Pulling will all take part in Round 6 of the season at Circuit Zandvoort (13-14 July).
