The Ferrari Driver Academy is parting ways with two of its graduates while welcoming three new prospects. Leaving the program are Formula 2 standouts Rafael Camara, who will race for Haas in Formula 1 next season, and Dino Beganovic. The Swede will remain part of the Scuderia as an F1 reserve and development driver.

The three new recruits are Turkey's Alp Aksoy, Colombia's Salim Hanna, and Daniel Miron from the Netherlands.

At 13 years old, Miron is the youngest of the intake. He finished runner-up in the OK-Junior class of the European Karting Championship this season and is set to move up to the senior OK category in 2027.

Aksoy is wrapping up his debut Italian F4 campaign, having also enjoyed a strong season in Euro 4 alongside Bulgarian driver Lyubo Ruykov, claiming a total of three wins across both series. Since the midpoint of the season, Aksoy and Ruykov have been teammates at Prema. In 2027, Aksoy will advance to Formula Regional Europe. Meanwhile, Colombia's Hanna will step up to Formula 3 next year after competing in Formula Regional this season.

Continuing with the Ferrari Academy are Noah Baglin and Filippo Sala, who are both stepping up from karting to Spanish F4. Alba Larsen remains for a second consecutive season in F1 Academy, Niccolo Maccagnani moves from F4 to F3, and Tuukka Taponen graduates from Formula 3 to Formula 2 with ART Grand Prix, following a third-place finish in this year's F3 standings that included one win and two further podiums.
