Just a few days to go until the first green light of the 2025 F1 Academy season, another thrilling year alongside the Formula 1 paddock!



The Formula 1 season kicked off just days ago in Melbourne, but the paddock has already moved to Shanghai, where Formula 1 Academy will make its season debut, the all-female series created in 2023 to develop the talent of young women drivers, and it’s set for another exciting year!



18 cars on the grid

The number of drivers and of T-421-F1A powered by the ATM 1.4L engine on the grid is increasing, thanks to the debut of Hitech TGR. The team joins the returning Prema, Rodin, Campos, MP, and ART, bringing the total to 18 drivers—17 full-time competitors, plus one wild card entry per Grand Prix, managed by Hitech.



Calendar

The season will feature seven rounds and the journey begins this weekend in Shanghai, kicking off a world tour that will take the drivers, teams, and cars to:

  • Jeddah (April 18-20)
  • Miami (May 2-4)
  • Montreal (June 13-15)
  • Zandvoort (August 29-31)
  • Singapore (October 3-5)
  • Las Vegas (November 20-22)

In Las Vegas, the new champion will be crowned, following in the footsteps of Marta Garcia (2023) and Abbi Pulling, winner of the 2024 season, the first in which the series shared the paddock with Formula 1 at every event.



The Format

Each race weekend will feature one or two free practice sessions before a 30-minute qualifying round, which sets the grid for the two races per event.

Race 1 will see the return of the “reverse grid” format, where the top 8 qualifiers will start in reversed positions, enhancing on-track competition and driver development. The winner of Race 1 will earn 10 points, with points awarded down to 8th place.

Race 2 will use the official qualifying times for the starting grid, with the top 10 finishers earning points—25 for the winner.



The Future

A unique series worldwide, won in 2024 by Abbi Pulling: thanks to her success, the British driver is now set for the next step in her career, competing in the GB3 Championship 2025 with the brand-new MSV-GB3-025 single-seater from Tatuus!

New Tatuus T-326 Unveiled: The Second-Generation Formula Regional Car

As part of the announcement of the 2026 Formula Regional Middle East Championship, the Lainate-based manufacturer and promoter Top Speed have revealed the first images of the new car.
The announcement of the 2026 edition of the Formula Regional Middle East Championship provided the perfect opportunity for a major new launch by Tatuus and ATM-Autotecnica Motori. The championship, promoted and organized by Top Speed, has established itself over the years as a key early-season event for drivers from all over the world. Now, it has confirmed that starting from next year and following the FIA validation and homologation process, it will adopt the new Tatuus T-326, the second-generation Formula Regional car, equipped with a specially adapted and prepared Toyota 3-cylinder engine by ATM .
The T-326 represents a natural evolution of the T-318 model, the Tatuus single-seater that first defined the majority of Formula Regional championships worldwide. The category was introduced alongside the car in 2018 as an intermediate step between Formula 4 and international Formula 3. With its homologation cycle and transitional period coming to an end, the T-318 is set to pass the baton to a new generation of cars at the conclusion of the current season. These new models will feature enhanced performance, higher safety standards, and technical solutions designed to improve and refine the driving experience , ultimately aiding young drivers in their journey up the single-seater pyramid.
Aerodynamics & Performance The car features a completely redesigned aerodynamic profile, shaped by the new FIA technical regulations for the category and inspired by the latest trends from the highest levels of Formula racing. The result is an overall performance boost, improved aerodynamic efficiency, and a reduction in wake effect, facilitating better overtaking conditions .
Engine, Technical and Mechanical solutions As mentioned, the car will be powered by the new Toyota-ATM 1.6-liter three-cylinder engin e, delivering 270 HP and 360 Nm of torque.
From a technical and mechanical standpoint, the T-326 introduces innovative and effective solutions aimed at improving drivability, enhancing the driver’s experience, and increasing the car’s educational value within the category . Key advancements include weight reduction, an optimized steering rack, and a revised suspension setup that provides a greater sense of lightness and ease of handling.
Safety & Driver Comfort Safety has always been a cornerstone of every Tatuus project, and this car is no exception . The chassis has been developed in accordance with the new FIA technical regulations to further enhance crash resistance. Additionally, key components such as the front and rear crash boxes, anti-intrusion panels, and roll bar have been updated to meet the latest safety standards.
Beyond safety, the cockpit has been designed to maximize driver comfort and ergonomics, accommodating both men and women across a wider height range, ensuring optimal conditions for competing on track .
The Formula Regional Middle East Championship is the first series to confirm the adoption of the new car, which now sets to undergo the FIA validation process before being fully unveiled in 2025. This marks another milestone in the longstanding collaboration between Top Speed and Tatuus, now in its 20th year.
