Marta Garcia Secures Fully Funded FREC Drive with Prema
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Formula 1
Marta Garcia, the winner of the inaugural F1 Academy season, will receive a fully funded seat with PREMA Racing for the 2024 Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine (FRECA). F1 Academy, PREMA Racing, Tatuus, and Pirelli will contribute financially towards the cost of the seat, highlighting F1 Academy's commitment to supporting drivers' progression in motorsports. FRECA will also grant its top teams a fourth entry if they sign a driver who finishes in the top three of the F1 Academy standings, promoting increased female participation in the championship. Additionally, F1 Academy will reduce the driver contribution for the 2024 season, making it more accessible for young women to enter the single-seater ladder.
