The seventh and final round of a season that reaches its conclusion with a second visit to the United States. Chambers and Palmowski, currently fourth and fifth in the overall standings, will look to climb further up the order. Ferreira, for her part, will fight to finish the year with her strongest performance yet in her rookie campaign. Campos Racing sits third in the teams’ standings
Another championship preparing to lower the curtain on its 2025 campaign. This coming weekend marks the final stop of the current F1 Academy season. The all-female category heads to American soil for the seventh round, its second visit to the North American giant after Miami. And what better place for an exciting season finale than the so-called “Entertainment Capital of the World”, a major global tourist destination.
Campos Racing arrives at the season finale aiming to extend the podium streak achieved by the team’s drivers throughout the year. Indeed, at least one Campos Racing representative has stood on the podium at every single event so far.
In the drivers’ standings, American racer Chloe Chambers lies fourth with 99 points, just two shy of third place. The Red Bull Ford Academy Programme driver has so far claimed one win and four further podium finishes, along with four pole positions and three fastest laps. Racing on home soil, she will aim to deliver her best possible result in front of her crowd.
Alisha Palmowski must also be counted among the contenders for victory. The Red Bull Ford Academy Programme driver has enjoyed a brilliant rookie season in F1 Academy, highlighted by her win in Shanghai and three additional podiums. The Briton, currently fifth with 73 points, will look to capitalize on her strong ability to adapt quickly to new circuits and shine in Las Vegas.
Finally, Rafaela Ferreira will seek to continue the run of points finishes she began in Zandvoort and extended in Singapore. The Visa Cash App RB Academy driver has a fifth place as her best result of the season so far, and Las Vegas would be the perfect venue to better that personal mark and end the year on a high.
In the teams’ standings, Campos Racing holds third place with 187 points.
The Las Vegas Strip Circuit is one of the new additions to this year’s calendar. The track is built around the iconic Strip, a section of the city’s main boulevard and the beating heart of Nevada’s bustling metropolis. With a capacity for 100,000 spectators, the circuit measures 6.201 km and features seventeen corners. Its over-one-kilometre straight is one of its defining characteristics, as is the sweeping left-hander around the Sphere. The third and final sector runs past Las Vegas’ main casinos, arguably the track’s most distinctive hallmark.
The sole free practice session is scheduled for 03:00 on Friday morning. Qualifying will follow later that same morning at 06:30. On Saturday, Race 1 is set for 03:15, while Race 2 takes place on Sunday at 01:20. All times correspond to Spanish local time.
Adrián Campos (Team Principal of Campos Racing): “We want to finish the F1 Academy season in style. Las Vegas will be new for everyone, but it’s a fairly fast circuit, with high-medium speeds, and slipstreaming can be extremely important. We’ll aim to continue ensuring our presence on the podium and finish as strongly as possible in both the drivers’ and teams’ standings.”
