The racers are taking their places on the starting grid for round 7 of the F1 Academy. We’re excited to announce that Prema Racing’s 16-year-old Chloe Chong. We will be sponsored by us in the final race of the year for the F1 Academy Tournament in Austin. This tournament will feature legendary F1 racers such as Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton, and Fernando Alonso. Chloe will race alongside her teammates, Bianca Bustamante from the Philippines (currently 7th in the standings) and Marta García from Spain (currently 1st in the standings).

Who’s Chloe Chong?

Chloe Chong, a driver from Britain and Canada, started her racing career by competing in karts in the UK. After three years, she became finalist in the Girls On Track Rising Stars scheme by FIA Women In Motorsport. In 2021, the Ferrari Driver Academy selected her to be one of four girls to race in the Italian academy.
