Alp Aksoy to Race for Ferrari Driver Academy in FRECA in 2027

Turkish driver Alp Aksoy will race within the Ferrari Driver Academy during the 2027 season. The young driver will compete in the FIA Formula Regional European Championship (FRECA) as part of Ferrari's development programme.

Aksoy's acceptance into the academy is seen as an important step in his single-seater career. He will face international rivals on circuits across Europe.

A 10-round calendar

FRECA, which Aksoy will contest in 2027, has a 10-round calendar running from Portugal to Spain. The championship is considered one of the key stepping stones for young drivers moving up to higher categories.

Being part of the Ferrari Driver Academy will also ensure that Aksoy's progress is closely watched by international motorsport circles.
