Chris Dittmann Racing is very happy to announce that rising motorsport talent Alba Larsen will join the team this season in the Wera Tools F4 British Championship.
The 16-year-old will be competing in F1 Academy this year, representing Tommy Hilfiger, one of the world’s most recognized premium lifestyle brands, and impressed on her debut in China, qualifying third and taking fourth and seventh-place finishes.
A relative newcomer to competitive racing, she won the Senior category of the 2023 FIA Girls On Track – Rising Stars programme, a collaboration between the FIA Women in Motorsport Commission and the Ferrari Driver Academy, helping launch her car racing career.
That same year, Alba scored points on her single-seater debut in a night race around Chennai Formula Racing Circuit in Indian F4, earning the title of Rookie of the Race, and won the Zealand Championship in karting, securing four victories in five contests. She will compete in Wera Tools British F4 this time out, for all but three events which clash with her F1 Academy commitments.
Embracing her rapid rise, she has formed the Alba Academy, which aims to inspire the next generation of racers, particularly young girls, by demonstrating that with passion, hard work, and the right support, no dream is too big.
For 15 years, Chris Dittmann Racing has built a strong reputation in single-seater competition, consistently delivering impressive results. In the past three seasons of the F4 British Championship, the team has made a significant impact, claiming the 2023 Rookie Cup title, securing eight overall podium finishes, and achieving 12 Rookie wins alongside 24 total Rookie podiums.
Looking ahead to the 2025 season, the championship will feature 10 rounds and 30 races, beginning at Donington Park on the weekend of April 26th-27th. The calendar includes high-profile events at iconic circuits such as Silverstone’s Grand Prix layout and Zandvoort, the historic home of the Dutch Grand Prix, before the season finale at Brands Hatch in October.
Alba Larsen
“I am very excited for 2025, racing in F1 Academy and F4, and gaining as much experience as possible, especially with Chris Dittmann Racing. I’ll be working with the team in British F4 to build my race craft and grow as a driver. It is my first full year in F4, so I am trying to learn as much as possible, especially as the F4 and F1 Academy cars are different, so I will have to adapt to different circumstances. We will see after the first race, if we can have any expectations for the rest of the season.”
Chris Dittmann, Team Principal
“We’re thrilled to welcome Alba to the team for the 2025 British F4 season. She has already shown tremendous potential in F1 Academy and other championships, and we’re excited to help her develop further in single-seater racing. Her determination and skill behind the wheel make her a fantastic addition to our lineup, and we’re looking forward to seeing what we can achieve together this year.”
