F1 Academy is a female-only single-seater racing championship founded by Formula One. The championship is a spec series, with all teams competing with an identical Tatuus F4-T-421 chassis and tyre compounds developed by Pirelli. Each car is powered by a 165-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder engine developed by Autotecnica.

Its inaugural season in 2023 was won by Marta García driving for Prema Racing, who won the teams' championship.

History

The championship traces its roots back to 2004, when Formula Woman was established due to the lack of female drivers in other series. In 2018, the W Series for the same reason. The series was held for three seasons from 2019 to 2022, with the planned 2020 season being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Шаблон:Citation needed However, after the 2022 season, with the series battling financial issues, the series was liquidated as no sponsorship appeared.[1]

On 18 November 2022, Formula One announced the creation of F1 Academy, a racing series for women aimed to focus on developing and preparing young drivers to progress to higher levels of competition. It was created to help smooth the transition from karting to the single-seater ladder.[2] The series was confirmed to consist of five teams with experience in Formula 2 and Formula 3, with each team entering 3 cars to make up a 15-car grid.Шаблон:Citation needed

The five teams that currently participate in F1 Academy are ART Grand Prix, Campos Racing, Rodin Carlin, MP Motorsport and Prema Racing.[3][4]

On 1 March 2023, Susie Wolff was appointed the managing director for the series.[5]

For the 2024 season, all ten F1 teams are set to support one driver each who will have the team's livery on their car. The remaining five drivers are to be supported by other partners.[4]

Championship format

The 2023 season consisted of seven event weekends with three races each, for a total of 21 races, plus fifteen days of official testing. The final of the seven events was a Formula One support race during the United Stated Grand Prix.[2][6][7]

On 31 March 2023, Formula One CEO Stefano Domenicali announced that the 2024 season would take place exclusively on select F1 weekends, joining Formula 2, Formula 3 and the Porsche Supercup as part of the support bill.[8]

The cars used for the 2023 season were the Tatuus F4-T421 chassis used in Formula 4 championships globally since 2022, with tyres provided by F1 partner Pirelli. For the 2023 season, Formula One subsidised the cost of each car, with drivers having to contribute €150,000.[2] This will be reduced to €100,000 for 2024.[9] The engine for the 2023 season was provided by Autotecnica and consisted of a 1.4-liter turbocharged 4 cylinder, capable of delivering 174 horsepower at 5500 rpm.[10]
