The formation of the F1 Academy 2024 is now complete, as Nerea Martí has been announced as a driver for Campos Racing. This exciting news comes with the support of new partner Tommy Hilfiger, a well-known fashion brand. Martí, a 22-year-old Spanish driver, had an impressive debut season, achieving two pole positions, six podiums, and a race victory, securing fourth place in the drivers’ standings. Racing in the iconic blue, red, and white colors of Tommy Hilfiger, Martí expressed her enthusiasm for the brand’s involvement and their commitment to breaking barriers and supporting female drivers. She is also eagerly looking forward to the various activations and events that will contribute to her personal and professional growth. Martí joins drivers Carrie Schreiner and Chloe Chambers in the Campos team. This collaboration between Tommy Hilfiger and the F1 Academy follows similar partnerships with Puma and Charlotte Tilbury, as the exclusively female single-seater series seeks to increase its visibility and enhance the profile of the series. Additionally, Tommy Hilfiger will work closely with the F1 Academy to design and manufacture uniforms for the team. The CEO of the F1 Academy, Susie Wolff, expressed her gratitude to Tommy Hilfiger for their support and shared vision of promoting female representation in motorsport. Tommy Hilfiger himself acknowledged the rapid development of the racing world and praised the F1 Academy for breaking barriers in a traditionally male-dominated sport. The F1 Academy season begins in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, from March 7th to 9th.
