Lia Block Shatters Barriers with Historic Win at F1 Academy Singapore; Maya Weug Narrows Championship Gap!

LIA BLOCK TRIUMPHANT IN SINGAPORE: FIRST WIN SHAKES UP F1 ACADEMY AS WEUG CHARGES TOWARDS CHAMPIONSHIP GLORY!

In an electrifying showdown at the iconic Marina Bay Street Circuit, the 2025 F1 Academy season witnessed a dramatic twist as Lia Block clinched her first-ever victory in the fiercely competitive all-female racing series. Block, who has captivated fans since her debut in 2024, made headlines with her triumphant performance in Race 1, while Maya Weug’s stellar win in Race 2 ignites the championship battle as it heads into the final stretch.

With her heart racing and adrenaline pumping, 19-year-old Block started Race 1 from pole position in the reverse-grid format and dominated the track, leading from start to finish. “I knew I left some room in my suitcase for a reason! Let’s freaking go!!! First win in F1 Academy, I couldn’t be happier with my performance,” she exuberantly proclaimed on social media. However, the road to victory was anything but smooth; Block faced fierce competition and two nerve-wracking race restarts, skillfully defending her lead against competitors eager to snatch it away. “I was just waiting for Maya to weave in my mirrors and then floor it from there,” she explained, highlighting her tactical approach during the intense restarts.

But the drama didn’t stop there! The race took a concerning turn when American Express-backed driver Nicole Havrda was rushed to the hospital following a crash on the opening lap. The F1 Academy swiftly released a statement confirming her precautionary transfer to Singapore General Hospital. “Not happy but I’m OK! First I really wanna say thank you to the amazing medical team for taking good care of me,” Havrda later updated her supporters, revealing her hand had sustained bruising from hitting the car’s side but fortunately, no fracture was found. She vowed to bounce back, stating, “Most importantly I am happy to be able to race tomorrow.”

However, the thrill of the race turned sour for Havrda once more in Race 2, where she suffered her fifth DNF of the season, leaving fans and her team in despair. On the flip side, Maya Weug, locked in a fierce championship battle with Doriane Pin, delivered a nail-biting performance in Race 2. After losing her position to Pin on the opening lap, Weug relentlessly pursued her rival, ultimately reclaiming the lead on the last lap in a dramatic finish. “First of all, I feel sorry for everyone watching – the heart attack I must have given them!” Weug humorously recounted, reflecting on the tension of the race.

With the championship title hanging in the balance, Weug’s victory in Race 2 propelled her closer to the coveted first place, narrowing the gap to just nine points behind current leader Pin. “That last lap was just crazy… I managed to get good temperature into the tyres,” Weug confidently stated, crediting her strategic choices during the race as critical to her success.

As the F1 Academy season races towards its thrilling conclusion in Las Vegas, the stakes have never been higher. With Block’s stunning debut victory and Weug’s relentless pursuit of the championship, fans are left breathless and eager for what’s next in this high-octane saga. The final showdown promises to be nothing short of explosive!

Stay tuned as we continue to bring you the latest updates and heart-stopping moments from the F1 Academy series!
