Miami Grand Prix President Tyler Epp emphasized their commitment to growing motorsport, praising F1 Academy Managing Director Susie Wolff's leadership in developing opportunities for young women in racing. The event will run alongside the Sprint format and Porsche Carrera Cup North America.

F1 Academy, launched in 2023, focuses on developing female racing talent aged 16-25. The series provides comprehensive support including technical training, physical conditioning, and mental preparation. Competitors race in Tatuus-built cars equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged engines capable of reaching 150mph.

In the current 2024 season, Alpine Academy driver Abbi Pulling leads the championship standings by 95 points over Doriane Pin, following her double victory in Miami, with two race weekends remaining.
