Alba Larsen will be returning for a second F1 Academy campaign this year, with Ferrari selecting the Danish racer to represent them this season.
The 16 year old put together a promising rookie season, scoring seven top-five finishes on her way to seventh in the Standings, including a joint best performance of P4 in Shanghai Race 2 and Las Vegas Race 2.
Larsen will be keeping her racing skills sharp with additional seat time. Alongside participating in the F4 UAE Championship over winter break, the Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy member will once again be competing in the British F4 Championship in which she achieved a best finish of P11 this year.
Prior to F1 Academy, Larsen won the Senior category of the 2023 FIA Girls on Track – Rising Stars programme. She went on to make her single-seater debut in the 2024 Indian F4 Championship, scoring points in her maiden weekend.
Racing for Ferrari in F1 ACADEMY is a dream come true. They’ve been my favourite team since I was a child and getting to wear red feels surreal and is an incredible honour. I’ve felt their support since FIA Girls on Track and now being part of the most iconic team in motorsport is a true honour. I’m ready to give everything I have for the Scuderia. Bet on red!
