As the 2024 F1 Academy season gets started, we're joined by Chloe Grant  for a preview of the second year of the series and a big announcement about her future! Christian and Betty also chat to Red Bull development drivers Hamda Al Qubaisi and Emely de Heus to get a sense of how things are shaping up ahead of their first race in Jeddah.
