F1 Academy's only U.S. race weekend in Miami hosted great racing and promise for more

MIAMI – Formula 1 Academy’s second season is in full swing now as it just wrapped up its second race weekend at the 2024 Miami Grand Prix alongside the circus that is Formula 1. Abbi Pulling, driving for Rodin Motorsport and supported by Alpine, convincingly stole first place in both 13-lap races around the Miami Autodrome.

“It’s definitely another level, the fans as you’re getting in the car, there’s people screaming as you’re driving away, and you’re on the grid and there’s people waving at you, and it’s a lot, but I think it’s what we need, and the boost that we need. It certainly drives me to keep going and keep pushing harder. It’s a good thing for women’s sport,” Pulling said.

One of the other series favorites is Bianca Bustamente . After stalling on the grid in her first race, she made a strong charge through the pack to score points in ninth. Then in the second race, she held off a fast Doriane Pin to secure second. Bustamente is only 19 years old, but is already pegged as a potential star and had a great weekend in Miami.
