F1 Academy Schedule Updated: Additional Race Added to Canadian Grand Prix
A new race has been added to the Canadian Grand Prix schedule after severe weather conditions in Miami prompted the late cancellation of an F1 Academy event. According to a report by GPFans, the 2025 Miami GP was hit by severe rain showers, which played havoc with Sunday’s race schedule, resulting in the cancellation of the second F1 Academy race of the weekend.
The cancellation has led to the addition of a new race to the F1 Academy’s schedule for their race weekend in Montreal, where three races will take place in the all-female racing series. The amended schedule means that free practice and qualifying will take place on Friday, whilst two races will happen on Saturday and one on Sunday. As per GPFans, the grid for Race 1 will be assembled using the final starting grid for Race 2 in Miami, whilst Race 2 in Canada will be set by reversing the top eight drivers from qualifying on Friday in Montreal.
The F1 Academy heads to Montreal following the release of its very own Netflix docu-series F1: The Academy, which, similar to Drive to Survive, takes viewers behind the scenes of the 2024 season. The series covers British driver Abbi Pulling’s fight for her first title, and a scene where Mercedes-backed driver Doriane Pin catches up with Lewis Hamilton, as reported by GPFans. Pin is currently one point off championship leader Maya Weug in the drivers’ standings, but it is Chloe Chambers who will start on pole for the first race in Montreal after setting the fastest time during qualifying in Miami.
Chambers will have Alisha Palmowski to keep her company on the front row of the grid, whilst Pin will start from third position but crucially ahead of championship leader Weug. As GPFans reports, the F1 Academy season will resume in Montreal, providing an exciting opportunity for the drivers to showcase their skills.
The addition of a new race to the Canadian Grand Prix schedule is a significant development for the F1 Academy, and GPFans has been at the forefront of providing updates on the situation. The F1 Academy has gained significant attention in recent times, with its own Netflix docu-series providing a unique insight into the world of all-female racing.
