Aston Martin has confirmed Tina Hausmann will race again in its F1 Academy team in 2025, driving for Prema.
As F1 Academy prepares for its third season, Hausmann will enter her second and final permitted year in the all-female series.
The Swiss driver debuted last season with Prema, scoring points in the opening race in Jeddah after a strong race.
A regular points scorer during the season, her best result came at the final race of the year in Abu Dhabi, finishing fourth.
She ended the season 10th in the standings behind teammates Maya Heung and Doriane Pin, after a solid campaign.

“Looking back on the incredible opportunity of competing in the 2024 F1 ACADEMY series for Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team with PREMA Racing, countless precious and unforgettable moments come to mind. Being behind the wheel and pushing the limits on seven iconic racetracks around the world felt like a dream came true. The learning curve was steep and culminated in a strong result in the final race. Aston Martin Aramco supported me throughout the journey like a true family.
“Being able to race for a second year in the series with Aston Martin Aramco and PREMA Racing – two incredible teams committed to competing at the top – means a lot to me. I want to thank everyone who made this possible. The relentless support of fans around the world has fuelled me with energy to push forward. As a passionate and determined driver, I am fully committed to constantly improving and growing.

On this global platform you are in the spotlight as an athlete and as an individual, but I feel fully supported in all situations by both teams. Everyone involved does an incredible job and is driven to perform.”
