Nerea Martí (born 2 January 2002 in Albalat dels Sorells, Valencia) is a Spanish racing driver. She currently competes in F1 Academy for Campos Racing. She previously raced in GT CER (Spanish Championship) with BMW Promotion Motorsport and W Series.[1]
Martí began karting aged nine through her father's rental kart track.[2] Late in her karting career, she was contracted to Fórmula de Campeones in an attempt to step up into professional racing.[3]
Martí made her single-seater debut in Spanish Formula 4 in 2019, scoring a podium in her first event.[4] A pair of seventh places late in the season would see her finish 16th in the standings and 2nd in the female trophy behind Belén García.[5] [6]
In 2020, Martí qualified for the second edition of the W Series, a Formula 3 championship exclusively for women.[7] The season was eventually cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,[8] after which she opted to race in the Spanish Karting Championship, where she finished 8th in the KZ category.[9]
Martí would eventually make her W Series debut in 2021. She achieved her first and only podium of the season at the Hungaroring, but finished 4th in the standings—as the best rookie—having scored points in all eight rounds.[10]
Martí qualified on pole position for the first race of the 2022 season, at the Miami International Autodrome. It was her first W Series pole position.[11]
Martí was selected to take part in a one-day FIA Formula 3 test at Magny-Cours in November 2021, alongside fellow W Series driver Irina Sidorkova and Iron Dames racers Maya Weug and Doriane Pin.[12]
Martí was announced as a driver for Campos Racing for the inaugural F1 Academy season. She was disqualified in the first race of the first round at Spielberg, but for the second and third race at the same round she managed a P4 and P5 finish respectively, earning her 15 points and taking her to 8th in the championship standings.
Martí remained in Campos Racing for 2024 with support from Tommy Hilfiger.[13] At the first round at Jeddah in Race 1, Martí was running in fourth but was tagged by Lola Lovinfosse in the final lap and finished in 14th.[14] In Race 2, she finished the race in fourth but was promoted to third after race winner Doriane Pin was given a post-race 20-second time penalty for crossing the finishing line twice.[15] [16]
Martí drove for Andretti in the 2024 Formula E women's test, alongside F1 Academy teammate Chloe Chambers.[17] She placed 13th in the test.[18]
Martí is married to footballer Hugo Duro.[19] [20]
