Pin was the standout performer as the 2024 F1 Academy season got underway in Saudi Arabia, taking the chequered flag in both races in her Mercedes-liveried entry before a communication error in the second outing resulted in her crossing the line twice, with a penalty dropping her to ninth.
Currently third in the standings, trailing Abbi Pulling and Maya Weug – who represent Alpine and Ferrari respectively -, Pin stands to win a fully funded Formula Regional European seat for 2025 should she win the F1 Academy title.
But the French driver has elected not to wait and has linked up once again with the Iron Dames, an outfit with which she has previously competed in endurance categories and will contest several World Endurance Championship rounds, including the Le Mans 24 Hours, in 2024.
"I feel grateful for this opportunity to participate in such a championship," said Pin. "I'm fully committed to this new challenge and can't wait to be on track and make the most of it.
"It's fantastic to take another important step in single-seater racing together with Iron Dames and Mercedes.
"Together with Marta, we aim to inspire young girls around the world to pursue their dreams fearlessly and embrace opportunities in racing."
