F1 EXPLAINS: Ask an F1 ACADEMY driver – with Hamda and Amna Al Qubaisi

With 16 drivers in identical cars, racing wheel-to-wheel on Grand Prix weekends – F1 ACADEMY, the game-changing racing series for female drivers, returns at the Singapore Grand Prix.
In the latest episode of F1 Explains, F1 ACADEMY race-winners, team mates and sisters, Hamda and Amna Al Qubaisi, answer your questions on staying calm under pressure, racing in different junior categories and how they recover after a race.
The siblings tell host Christian Hewgill how F1 ACADEMY has changed their careers, and the support they get from Formula 1 teams and drivers through the Red Bull Racing Pepe Jeans and Visa CashApp Academy Programmes.
Plus, they also discuss the story of when the sisters clashed on-track – and in the stewards’ room post-race.
