Reigning F1 Academy champion Alisha Palmowski is making a massive leap in her professional motorsport career by officially joining the Red Bull Junior Team for next season. Alongside this major milestone, the talented British driver is stepping up to the competitive Formula Regional European Championship (FREC) grid to race with Rodin Motorsport.
Over the past two seasons, Palmowski has proven her racecraft in the all-female F1 Academy championship. Competing in machinery run by Campos Racing adorned with the iconic Red Bull Racing livery, she navigated a challenging campaign that ultimately showcased her resilience and elite speed when it mattered most.
Her dominant run to the title featured stellar performances, including five race victories and six pole positions. Securing the championship crown in Austin in front of her family and key figures from the energy drink brand's racing division remains a surreal and unforgettable highlight of her rising career.
"I am so excited to continue my journey with Red Bull," said the 20-year-old Briton. "I joined this family just under two years ago as a young girl with dreams of making them come true. Winning the title in Austin, with my family there and so many people from Red Bull, was surreal, and it’s a weekend I’ll never forget."
Looking ahead to her next chapter, Palmowski acknowledges that stepping up to FREC will present entirely new technical and physical hurdles, but she is fully prepared to tackle the challenge head-on with her new squad.
"Next season brings a new series, a new team and a fresh opportunity to test myself," she added. "Moving up the single-seater ladder has always been the goal, and I’m incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to race in FRegional with Rodin. I can’t wait to get going."
Palmowski's extensive junior single-seater resume also includes stints in the Formula Winter Series and a brilliant runner-up finish in the 2024 GB4 Championship featuring three race wins. Her graduation to FREC follows the path of previous F1 Academy stars, further cementing the championship's vital role in cultivating top-tier female driving talent for the global motorsport stage.
