Nine-year-old racing prodigy Arshi Gupta has created history by becoming the youngest driver ever selected for the F1 Academy initiative Discover Your Drive Program.

Arshi began her motorsport journey at the age of seven, quickly showcasing exceptional talent on the karting track. Her early achievements earned her recognition in the India Book of Records as one of the youngest racers to hold a racing license.

Since then, she has continued to impress in national karting competitions, winning championships and representing India at international racing events. Her fearless driving style and strong competitive spirit have made her one of the most promising young talents in Indian motorsport.

As part of the Discover Your Drive program, Arshi will now travel to the United Kingdom, where she will compete and train alongside some of the world’s most talented young drivers. The initiative aims to nurture emerging racers and provide them with opportunities to progress in professional motorsport.
