F1 Academy to make 2 stops in United States in 2025
The all-female F1 Academy unveiled its 2025 schedule, which includes a pair of stops in the United States
On Monday the F1 Academy announced its schedule for its third season, which will take place in 2025. The all-female series is slated to make a pair of stops in the United States next year, as the F1 Academy will be part of the Miami Grand Prix in May, as well as the Las Vegas Grand Prix in November.
The stop in Las Vegas will be the season finale of the 2025 F1 Academy schedule.
Next year’s F1 Academy schedule will contain seven race weekends, including stops in China, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Netherlands, Singapore, and a pair of races in the United States.
“I am proud to announce our F1 ACADEMY 2025 calendar, which demonstrates our continued commitment to taking the series to new heights, expanding our globar reach and bringing our mission to an increasingly diverse and engaged global audience,” said Susie Wolff, the Managing Director of F1 Academy, in a press release. “I want to thank our promoters for their enthusiasm and support, and for joining us on our journey to create opportunities for women to thrive at every level of our sport. Finishing our season in Las Vegas will be an iconic moment, and its addition to the calendar is testament to the wealth of support we receive from Formula 1 and Liberty Media.”
“F1 ACADEMY continues to go from strenth to strength, delivering brilliant on-track action for our fans and inspiring young girls and women around the world,” said Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of F1. “We are seeing huge interest in the series, and it is fantastic that the calendar features new venues and once again spans three continents, meaning we can continue to build our audiences and connect with fans around the world. I would like to thank our race promoters who continue to support F1 ACADEMY so passionately. What has been achieved in just two years since the series was launched has been incredible, and I cannot wait to see the cars hit the track again next year.”
The announcement is the latest nod to the growth of the F1 Academy series, which has two race weekends left this season. Earlier his year at the Miami Grand Prix, the series announced it was getting the Drive to Survive treatment, as Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine is producing a docuseries on the F1 Academy.
Similar to Drive to Survive, the docuseries will air on Netflix.
According to the release, the series “ ... will give fans exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the all-women driving category, highlighting the drama of the races, as well as the personal stories and high stakes for the drivers, their teams, sponsors, and families involved, as they break barriers in one of the most demanding sports in the world.”
Now the F1 Academy will also see multiple races in the United States starting next year.
