Abbi Pulling is the current Drivers' Championship leader for Rodin Motorsport.

The 2024 F1 Academy is a formula racing championship that is the second season of the F1 Academy, an all-female, Formula 4-level racing series founded and organized under the management of Formula Motorsport Limited. All seven rounds will support the 2024 Formula One World Championship, with 10 of the 15 drivers' cars sporting liveries sponsored by the 10 teams competing in Formula One during 2024.

Prema Racing started the season as defending champions, having won the 2023 title with inaugural drivers' champion Marta García.

F1 Academy is a spec series; 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.^[1]

For the 2024 season, all 10 Formula One teams support one driver and have their livery on that driver's car. The remaining five drivers in the series are supported by other partners.^[2]

The Red Bull Ring, Monza Circuit, Circuit Paul Ricard, Circuit Ricardo Tormo, and Circuit of the Americas were all removed due to the series becoming a full-time part of the Formula One support program. The Jeddah Street Circuit hosted the opening round. At the same time, the Miami International Autodrome, Marina Bay Street Circuit, Losail International Circuit, and the Yas Marina Circuit became new additions to the calendar.

The season started off at the Jeddah Street Circuit. Doriane Pin took pole by nearly eight tenths from Abbi Pulling and Maya Weug. During the first race, wildcard driver Reema Juffali collided with Amna Al Qubaisi on lap two, while Jessica Edgar sustained a puncture midway after contact with Tina Hausmann. Pin won the race from Pulling and Weug.^[30]

In the second race, Chloe Chambers tagged Lola Lovinfosse into a spin on lap three. Lovinfosse re-entered the track directly in the path of Lia Block, which earned her a five-place grid penalty for the next race. The sole safety car period happened after Juffali crashed out on lap six. Pin crossed the finish line first, but was unaware that the race ended and took the chequered flag twice. She was investigated and later penalised for the mistake. Pulling inherited the win ahead of Weug and Nerea Martí, with Pin moving down to ninth. Pulling left Jeddah as the championship leader, with Weug in second and Pin in third.^[31]

Pulling took pole in the next round at the Miami International Autodrome. In the first race, Bianca Bustamante stalled from fourth on the grid and could only recover to ninth with the fastest lap. Lap one contact from Aurelia Nobels spun Hausmann into the wall, which caused her retirement and a 10-second time penalty for Nobels. Block spun on lap seven, but remained in the race. Pulling took a comfortable victory from Pin, while Chambers achieved her first podium in the series from Weug, who eventually fell to sixth after a penalty.^[32]

Pulling started again from pole in the second race. Lovinfosse locked up in the first corner and tagged Hausmann, who was forced to retire for the second race in a row. On lap eight Lovinfosse locked up again, this time hitting Nobels. Both were able to rejoin the race, with Lovinfosse earning two 10-second time penalties for her collisions. Edgar spun on lap eleven but was able to rejoin the race. Pulling once again crossed the finish line in first, but this time it was Bustamante who would finish second ahead of Pin.^[33]

Pulling claimed her third and fourth pole positions in a row as the series began its European leg, with title rival Pin only fourth as she recovered from fractured ribs sustained in the break between events.^[34][35] Pin's problems were compounded when she stalled at the start of Race 1, and fought back to only seventh as Pulling claimed her fourth race win in a row. A safety car was called after Weug and Amna Al Qubaisi collided. Martí and Chloe Chambers survived minor first-corner contact to finish second and third respectively.^[36]

Chambers dominated the second race of the weekend, jumping Pulling at the start and taking a lights-to-flag win. The win allowed Chambers to draw level with Pin for second in the championship, both of whom sat 66 points behind Pulling.^[37]

Race 1 was rescheduled to Sunday and shortened to thirteen laps after adverse weather postponed the original start. Pulling again started from pole position, and took another dominant lights to flag victory. Pin crossed the line in second, but received a five-second time penalty for a jump start, which dropped her down to fifth place. Martí and Weug rounded out the podium, while Nina Gademan finished fourth, becoming the first wildcard entry to score points.^[38]

Pin returned to pole position for Race 2. Block and Edgar both stalled on the start, and Martí was pushed wide in the first corner. A battle between Nobels and Gademan ended with Nobels taking a trip through the gravel and Gademan receiving a ten-second time penalty for causing a collision. Pin took the fastest lap and the victory ahead of Weug and Pulling. All three drivers finished within 2.2 seconds of each other, and had a 12-second gap to fourth place.^[39]

Pulling once again took both pole positions for the weekend. Race 1 was shortened to 11 laps after a second formation lap was taken because Bustamante missed her grid box, for which she received a 10-second stop and go penalty. Emely de Heus spun on lap six, but was able to rejoin the race. Pin was once again penalized for jumping the start, but she managed to build a gap and was still classified in her finishing position of third, while earning a point for the fastest lap. Wildcard driver Ella Lloyd also received a 5-second penalty for a jump start. Pulling finished in first, ahead of Weug.

Pulling took another lights to flag victory in Race 2. Weug and Pin battled for second over the first lap, with Weug ending in front of Pin. The safety car came out on lap 4 after Bustamante hit the curb and spun, although she was able to rejoin the race. On the restart there was contact between Bustamante and Hausmann, with the latter receiving a 10-second penalty. Block achieved her highest finish of the season, ending in fourth place for both races.^[40]
