Chambers joins Red Bull for F1 Academy
Red Bull and Ford Motor Company are extending the title partnership of the Red Bull Ford Academy program for the 2025 season and bringing American racer Chloe Chambers into the fold.
Chambers, currently fourth in the F1 Academy standings, brings with her a wealth of experience, having previously raced the F4 U.S. Championship and W Series. She is currently competing in F1 Academy with Haas and Campos Racing.
Chambers’ first foray with Ford will be as a participant in the Ford Mustang Challenge this weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, running in conjunction with the Indy 8 Hours Intercontinental GT Challenge and Fanatec GT World Challenge America finale.
“I am thrilled to be driving for the Red Bull Ford Academy Program for the upcoming 2025 season,” said Chambers. “As an American driver, it is an honor to team up with an iconic American automotive company like Ford. It is a privilege to be partnering with the Red Bull Ford Academy Program to continue improving female representation in the sport, and I am grateful for the support to achieve my own career goals in motorsport.
“I am excited to take part in the Ford Mustang Challenge this week and to have more opportunities to race outside of my role in F1 Academy. My focus for the rest of the year remains on delivering performance with Haas, but I’m looking forward to the next chapter in 2025.”
Ford is partnering with Red Bull Racing as it works towards the brand’s return to F1 in 2026 with Red Bull Ford powertrains.
“Continuing our partnership with Ford as a title sponsor of the Red Bull Academy Program is hugely exciting and further cements their commitment to female participation in motorsports,” said Christian Horner, CEO and team principal of Red Bull Racing. “Everyone at the team is looking forward to welcoming Chloe to the Red Bull family where she is a key part of our line-up for the 2025 F1 Academy season.
“Welcoming an American driver that has previously been linked to Ford marks an exciting progression in our partnership with Ford Performance. Red Bull and Ford share common values and are united in providing more opportunities for young and emerging talent in motorsports, and we can’t wait to see Chloe hit the track in Red Bull Ford colors in 2025.”
The Ford Mustang Dark Horse R that Chambers will race this weekend in Red Bull colors will run in the Ford Mustang Challenge — a one-make series using the Dark Horse R, a race-ready car produced by Ford.
“It’s so great to welcome Chloe to the Ford family as she joins the Red Bull Ford Academy Program,” said Mark Rushbrook, Global Director of Ford Performance Motorsport. “Chloe is not only a real racing talent but also has the ability to race in different series and to see her lining up in the Mustang Challenge in our Dark Horse R is really cool. To have an American driver representing an iconic American brand is the perfect scenario for us and we are excited for all that 2025 will hold. This partnership is also part of a much larger relationship that we now enjoy with Red Bull across many race series and our partnership is getting stronger all the time.”
Chambers, one of two Americans competing in F1 Academy this season along with Lia Block, is replacing Emely de Heus in the Red Bull Ford Academy Program. The F1 Academy series dictates that drivers can only participate in the series for two years before moving on to the next phase of their careers.
