The French Team ART Grand Prix  takes to the track in the final round of Euro 4 at Monza with Bianca Bustamante and Aurelia Nobels

The French Team ART Grand Prix takes to the track in the final round of Euro 4 at Monza with Bianca Bustamante and Aurelia Nobels

Monza - The French team ART Grand Prix will make its debut in the world of Formula 4 during the season finale of the Euro 4 Championship at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza on the weekend of October 4-6.
 

Founded in 1996 by Frédéric Vasseur, ART Grand Prix is active in FIA Formula 2, FIA Formula 3, F1 Academy and the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine. Over the years, the Essonne-based Team has developed numerous talents who have reached the highest levels. With more than 200 victories to its name, led by CEO Sébastien Philippe, under the Technical Direction of Frédéric Guyot and the Sporting Direction of Mathieu Zangarelli, the Team has chosen the Euro 4 Championship, promoted by ACI Sport and WSK Promotion, for its entry into Formula 4 racing.
 

What makes this weekend even more exciting is the all-female lineup, featuring Bianca Bustamante and Aurelia Corine Nobels. Both drivers are already familiar faces in the F4 scene: the Filipino driver took part in the Italian F.4 Championship round at Spa-Francorchamps in 2023, while the Brazilian Aurelia Corine Nobels competed in the entire season of both the Italian series and the Euro 4 Championship last year.


Bianca Bustamante
Born in 2005, Bianca Bustamante hails from Manila, Philippines. She began her racing career at the age of 5, quickly making a name for herself with numerous victories in karting. In 2022, she made the step up to car racing. In 2024, Bustamante competes in the F1 Academy with ART Grand Prix and, in 2023 was announced as the first female in the McLaren Racing Driver Development programme as the team’s F1 Academy driver.
 

Aurelia Corine Nobels
Aurelia Corine Nobels, born in 2007, was born in Boston, USA, to Belgian parents. She grew up in Brazil, where she took on Brazilian nationality. She started her karting career at a young age, reaching the top ranks in 2020 and 2021. In 2022, she made her Formula 4 debut, catching the attention of Scuderia Ferrari, and by the end of the year, she joined Ferrari Driver Academy. In 2023, she participated in the full season of both the Italian F.4 and the Euro 4 Championship, debuting in 2024 in the F1 Academy, where she competes for ART Grand Prix.
 

ART Grand Prix will also participate in the final round of the Italian F.4 Championship, again at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza, during the weekend of October 27th.
