One common criticism that Formula 1 Academy faces from new fans is that the cars appear to be slow compared to the higher-tier F1 cars. Some have even compared them to tractors. Even Max Verstappen has expressed his doubts about the speed of the cars, stating that they need to reach a higher level to attract new drivers to the sport. However, F1 Academy believes that the cars are suitable for the level of competition they offer.

F1 Academy, an all-women racing series launched in 2023, aligns with the F1 calendar for seven race weekends a year. The tracks on the F1 Academy calendar vary in terms of straightness and difficulty, which can give the impression that the cars are slow, especially when compared to the high speeds of F1 cars. However, the cars used in F1 Academy are similar to Formula Four cars, with some tweaks to align them more closely with F1 specifications, providing young drivers with the necessary preparation for higher levels of competition.

The speed of the cars is not due to a lack of talent from the drivers but rather the nature of the cars and the track configurations. The F4 cars used in F1 Academy provide drivers with crucial track time and experience at F1 circuits, helping them prepare for the next steps in their racing careers. The cars are designed to be easy to drive and incorporate safety features from higher categories, ensuring a safe learning environment for the drivers.

The F1 Academy cars closely resemble Formula Four cars, with some modifications to the wings to optimize aerodynamics and improve overtaking opportunities. The homologation process for the cars ensures that they meet technical regulations and are safe for competition. The series focuses on driver preparation and training, allowing teams to make suspension and wing setup changes and use a single tire compound.

Overall, F1 Academy provides young drivers with a stepping stone from karting to higher levels of single-seater racing. The series offers a safe and reliable environment for drivers to learn and gain valuable experience on F1 circuits. The cars may appear slow in comparison to F1 cars, but they serve their purpose in preparing drivers for the challenges of professional racing. With a focus on physical and mental training, F1 Academy is a crucial training ground for the next generation of racing talent.
