Doriane Pin has her eyes on 2025 F1 Academy title

On Wednesday Mercedes unveiled the livery for their 2025 F1 Academy entry, to be driven by Doriane Pin for the second season in a row.

Speaking about the upcoming F1 Academy season, Pin made it clear that she has one goal in mind: A title.

Pin entered the 2024 F1 Academy campaign as one of the favorites for the F1 Academy Drivers’ title, despite the year representing her first full season in single-season racing. She captured three victories and five further podium finishes, finishing second behind Abbi Pulling.

Those results helped her team, Prema Racing, capture the F1 Academy teams’ championship alongside Maya Weug and Tina Hausmann.

Now Pin is focused on the Drivers’ title.

“I’m really excited for the new season. I have been working incredibly hard over the winter to be as prepared as possible for the year ahead. I’m determined to give it everything I’ve got, and to push myself even further, to fight for the title. That is the only goal I have in mind,” said Pin.

”Revealing the livery for this year’s car is another milestone that helps build my excitement. I think it looks absolutely incredible and it’s such an honour to represent Mercedes and the team’s junior programme in F1 Academy. I also want to thank Snapdragon for their continued support and I’m looking forward to doing everyone proud, starting in China later this month.”

The 2025 F1 Academy has seven race weekends on the schedule, starting at the Chinese Grand Prix later this month. The schedule includes a pair of races in the United States, first at the Miami Grand Prix in May and later at the Las Vegas Grand Prix in November.
