F1 Academy And Formula One Announces Huge Collaboration For 2024
As of next season, the F1 Academy will have closer ties with Formula One with each team backing a driver as well as every stage of the all-female series being broadcast. One of the main complaints from fans during the first season was the lack of visibility the racing series was getting due to it not being broadcast.
