How do you become an F1 driver?

Answer 1

To become a formular 1 racer: the first thing you can do is to start goin go-karting every now and then and if you enjoy this you can try to start woking on a formular 1 race track even if its only giving out tickets or cleaning cars. Try to hang out with the race car drives and ask them lots of questions about racing. Then try and go to a racing school for about 3 days. this will look good to other drives. when ever you can get behind the wheel of a car, even if its only a street car. your boss should see what you can do. Just try to hang out with drives and ask them loads of questions about racing. thank you. By Chapman

Start in Karting at a young age (typically under 10), win a lot, start moving up through racing classes (ie: formula 3000, formula BMW, formula 2, gp2, etc.) when you're around 15- 19, and finally land in f1 in your early- mid twenties. you have to have a combination of resources, skill, seat time, determination, physical fitness, and luck to land a seat in f1.

The most common way is to work your way up from Go-Karting at your local track to competitive karting, then progressing to semi-pro and pro race events such as GP2, touring cars, F3000 or even rallying. Usually aspiring F1 drivers will start very young at karting (the stars of today usually start as young as 6) and take the route of GP2 and single seaters.
