At 21, Megan Bruce is preparing to spend a year on the racetracks of the F1 Academy, her first in the category. Alongside the Spanish team Campos Racing, and its sponsor – official watchmaker of the series – TAG Heuer, the Briton will try to make use of the skills acquired over the last few years driving single-seaters.
Having only started competing in 2023, Megan Bruce reached her first Caterham Academy podium after five appearances, allowing her to continue in the Caterham 270R the following year. Competing in GB4 during the 2024 and 2025 seasons, she initially managed nine top-10 finishes in her debut season, before achieving a fourth-place finish the following year, her best result in the category, at Oulton Park.
Also called upon to make a guest appearance during the 2025 F1 Academy season in Singapore, Megan Bruce demonstrated real potential in this category. Finishing twelfth and then thirteenth after the two weekend races, the British driver overcame her lack of experience to avoid being caught out despite some turbulent conditions.

“Having started this adventure only three years ago, I am extremely grateful for their trust and for giving me this opportunity,” she commented regarding her new team. I loved discovering the F1 Academy in Singapore, I learned a lot there, and I can't wait to work with Campos Racing and start the season.
Already present in Navarre as part of the Rookie Test, Megan Bruce will discover the category for good, as part of her first race weekend, from March 13 to 15, in Shanghai, China.
