In this episode of P22, we dive into the world of F1 Academy as the series kicks off its new season alongside the Chinese Grand Prix weekend in Shanghai.
We break down what F1 Academy is, why it was created, and how it’s building a real development pipeline for female drivers in motorsport. From its founding by Formula 1 leadership to the role of managing director Susie Wolff, we explore how the championship is designed to give the next generation of drivers the funding, track time, and exposure needed to climb the racing ladder.
We also look at how the series works on race weekends, the connection with every Formula 1 team backing drivers on the grid, and why the championship has quickly become one of the most important development platforms in the sport. Finally, we preview the season opener in Shanghai and discuss the key storylines and drivers to watch as the fight for the 2026 title begins.
If you’re new to F1 Academy or just want to understand how it fits into the future of Formula 1, this episode gives you the full breakdown.
