Dutch racer Nina Gademan will make her F1 ACADEMY debut this month as a Wild Card entry for Round 4 in Zandvoort, joining the 2024 grid.
The 20-year-old will drive a car featuring The Female Quotient’s distinctive livery, marking a critical partnership with F1 ACADEMY. Gademan’s #4 car will be managed by reigning Teams’ Champions PREMA Racing, alongside their three full-time entries.
Hailing from Wijster, Netherlands, Gademan entered single-seater racing this year. She is currently competing in British F4, where she recently secured her first rookie podium at the Thruxton Circuit.
Her motorsport journey began with impressive achievements, including winning the Karting Slalom Gold medal at the 2019 FIA Motorsport Games. She also claimed top rookie honors in the PTC Cup and finished second in the TB class during the 24 Hours of Zolder as part of an all-female team. Beyond racing, Gademan is also a prominent e-sports content creator.
Looking ahead to her F1 ACADEMY debut, Nina Gademan expressed her excitement:
“I believe the Wild Card entries present an excellent opportunity for us to demonstrate what we are capable of in a field like F1 ACADEMY. I am truly grateful for this chance and for the support I have received from the F1 ACADEMY and the PREMA Racing team.
“I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to The Female Quotient for their support of the Wild Card initiative in Zandvoort. I will give my utmost to showcase my abilities and make the most of this opportunity.”
Gademan is the third Wild Card entry of the season, following Courtney Crone and Reema Juffali, who competed in Miami and Jeddah, respectively.
