Alba Larsen is dreaming big as the 16-year-old prepares to fly the flag for F1 ACADEMY Official Partner Tommy Hilfiger on the 2025 grid.
A late arrival to the competitive racing scene as a pre-teen, Larsen quickly got down to business. In her first full season in 2022, she delivered P3 in the Zealand Championship alongside two top-four finishes in the Danish and Nordic IAME Championships.
Stepping into junior karting in 2023, Larsen's progression continued as she was crowned the Zealand Champion, winning four out of the five rounds. Competing in 14 races, she scored 11 podiums and furthered her experience by finishing 64th in the IAME Series Italy’s X30 Junior Standings and 12th in the Danish Karting League’s X30 Junior Standings series.
One of four senior category finalists selected for the 2023 FIA Girls On Track Rising Stars programme, Larsen adapted rapidly to driving a formula car, despite no prior car racing experience. Winning the shootout set the Dane on the path to her single-seater debut, where she scored points in her two-round appearance of the 2024 Indian F4 Championship, finishing P8 in her second race and claiming a podium as the best rookie.
Mentored by fellow Dane Kevin Magnussen, Larsen hopes to support others in turn through her Alba Academy, which helps to inspire the next generation of female racers.
