The Ferrari Driver Academy has finalised its sporting programmes for the 2027 season, which will see eight young talents from the Maranello junior programme competing from karting to Formula 2, including, Formula 3, Formula Regional, Formula 4 and F1 Academy.

There are three newcomers for this new academic year: Turkish driver Alp Aksoy, Colombian Salim Hanna and Dutch Daniel Miron.

The youngest of the three new recruits is Miron, born on 7 September 2013, who will continue his karting career by moving up to the OK class, following a 2026 season in which he was one of the leading international performers in OK-Junior finishing second in the European FIA Championship.

2027 will mark an important step for Noah Baglin and Filippo Sala, who will bid farewell to karting to make their single-seater debuts, in Spanish Formula 4. Noah, British, born in 2012, heads into this new challenge after an outstanding season in which he was crowned European champion in the OK category, adding the continental title to the Junior World Championship he won the previous season. Filippo, Italian, born in 2011, was also a leading contender in both the European Championship and the Champions of the Future series.

Alp Aksoy will compete in the European Formula Regional Championship: born in Istanbul on 10 October 2010, he joins the Maranello junior programme after a promising debut season in single-seaters. This year, the Turkish driver is competing in the Italian Formula 4 Championship and the Euro4 series, where he has so far claimed three wins, at Misano and Paul Ricard.

Alba Larsen will continue her career in F1 Academy. Having joined the Maranello programme at the start of 2026, the Dane made significant progress throughout the season, the highpoint so far being two second-place finishes at Zandvoort - her first podiums in the category. Alba continues in the championship in 2027, with the aim of further consolidating the experience gained during her first season as a Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy driver.

Another of the Academy's new recruits, Salim Hanna, born on 20 November 2009 in Barranquilla, who competed this year in Formula Regional, claiming a victory at Imola, will contest the full season in the category, where he will be joined by Niccolò Maccagnani, who moves up directly from Formula 4, having won two races in 2026, at Misano and Mugello.

Finally Tuukka Taponen will compete in Formula 2 with ART Grand Prix in 2027, returning to the team with which he contested his first Formula 3 season in 2025. The Finn moves up to the category after finishing third in this year's Formula 3 championship, claiming one win and two further podium finishes over the course of the season.

The 2026 season marks the end of Dino Beganovic and Rafael Camara's time in the Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy as both begin a new chapter in their careers.

On Thursday it was announced that Rafael will step up to Formula 1 with Haas in 2027, while Dino Beganovic will remain part of Scuderia Ferrari HP as a development and reserve driver, sharing reserve duties with Antonio Giovinazzi.
