🇺🇸 Lia Block

Lia Block is a semi-professional racing in F1 Academy, a multiclass single-seater championship with three classes racing together. She drives for ART Grand Prix, the team that fielded George Russell and has taken 177 wins across the index. Block competes across F1 Academy's R1, R2 and R3 classes and has also raced in Spanish and Italian Formula 4 in 2024.[1]

Across two seasons of indexed racing, Block has taken one win and two podiums from 36 starts. Her win came in F1 Academy in 2024, her first season in the championship. She finished 24th in the Spanish F4 standings that same year after six starts, and took two starts in Italian F4. The bulk of her record sits in F1 Academy, where she has contested 28 of her 36 starts; that championship continues to the present.[2]

Block races regularly against Doriane Pin, a professional and FIA Silver-graded driver who won F1 Academy in 2025 and has raced Formula Regional European and the World Endurance Championship; Pin typically finishes ahead of her. She is closely matched with Aurélia Nobels, a semi-professional who has raced across Italian F4 and single-seater series at a similar level. She has finished ahead of Alex Powell and Yevan David, both professionals with substantial Formula 3 experience, though only on single occasions each.
