The 2025 F1 Academy season gets underway on Friday, March 21 at the Chinese Grand Prix, as the stars of the all-female racing series make their way to Shanghai for the first time.
Last year's runner up Doriane Pin heads in as one of the favourites for the championship, but she will have tough competition from Ferrari's Maya Weug and Red Bull star Chloe Chambers, who were the only other drivers alongside Pin to claim a victory in 2024.
The grid will welcome several new drivers in 2025, including Australian racers Joanne Ciconte and Aiva Anagnostiadis, and Chloe Chong will make her F1 Academy return with Charlotte Tilbury having last been seen on the grid in 2023.
So, who will claim the drivers' title for the 2025 F1 Academy season?
Will those with unfinished business, such as Pin and Weug, take the title this time around, or will newcomers like Palmowski deny them a maiden championship?
