PUMA has announced Rachel Robertson, who took part in the all-female racing series round in Las Vegas in 2025, as its full-time F1 Academy driver for 2026.
Robertson began competitive karting in 2022 and went on to compete in the British Kart Championships within a year of starting. The Scottish driver was selected at the end of 2024 to drive with Radical Racing Rebels in the 2025 Radical Cup UK, in which she finished third overall in the championship.
