F1 Academy has announced a seven-round calendar for the 2024 season, with every event featuring on the Formula 1 support bill.

Following on from this year's inaugural season, the all-women series' second campaign will start and end in the Middle East, beginning in Saudi Arabia on March 7 and concluding in Abu Dhabi on December 8.

In addition to the hosts of the opening and closing rounds, Miami, Qatar, and Singapore will all join the calendar for the first time, with Zandvoort and Barcelona returning for a second year.

The calendar has been designed to span three continents - Europe, Asia and North America - and will feature a mix of street circuits and traditional circuits, with the racing to be supplemented by an extensive official testing calendar that will be announced in due course.

"We want to inspire young girls and women across the globe and show them that there's a place for them in our sport, and racing alongside F1 will help us achieve this.

F1 Academy championship leader Marta Garcia believes the F1 Academy helps female drivers get into motorsport and be seen.

"I want to thank all seven promotors for supporting us in our mission and embarking on this journey with us in 2024."

Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, added: "It is fantastic to welcome F1 Academy onto seven rounds of the F1 calendar next year.

"This global platform, combined with the support of all 10 F1 teams, will take the series to the next level, providing not only the opportunity for the drivers to develop their skills on F1 tracks, but to inspire young girls around the world to pursue a future in motorsport.

Jamie Chadwick says more women are needed in the Formula One feeder series, but insists she wants to reach the top of the sport on merit.

"I want to thank our promoters, our F1 teams, and the wider motorsport community for their support of F1 Academy as we move towards our exciting second season."
