Aiva Anagnostiadis' passion of motorsport runs in her blood and her lifelong love of racing has powered her all the way to the 2025 F1 ACADEMY grid.
With a family fuelled by all things fast, Anagnostiadis got her first taste of what four wheels had to offer aged six when she accompanied her mother, who was a competitive go-karter, to the track.
Once in action herself, the Australian soon began racking up podium finishes of her own and was awarded the Australian Ladies Trophy at the 2021 Australian Kart Championship, before going on to compete at the 2022 Motorsport Games in France.
In 2023, Anagnostiadis was selected as one of the six karters for the Alpine Rac(H)er Academy Programme, relocating to the UK alongside her family to pursue her racing dream. Transitioning to single-seaters last year, she finished 10th in the Indian F4 Championship.
Using that opportunity and appearances in the Formula Winter Series this year as a springboard, the 17-year-old will embark on her rookie F1 ACADEMY campaign with TAG Heuer, operated by Hitech Grand Prix.
