2024 represents a new challenge for Lia Block, as the American driver trades the desert dunes and off-road racing for her first year in single seaters. Her story began in karting aged 11, going on to participate in her first off-road race that same year.
Despite her youth, a then 15-year-old Block competed in the 2021 American Rally Association Championship finale. Returning for two further campaigns, she made history in 2023 becoming the youngest ARA Champion at only 17, combining this feat with racing in Extreme E and Nitrocross NEXT.
Diving straight into all that open-wheel racing has to offer, Block will now be taking to the track in the #57 Williams car operated by ART Grand Prix, alongside joining the Williams Racing Driver Academy.
