P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Red Bull junior driver Arvid Lindblad is currently competing in a series in New Zealand to acquire the FIA super licence points he needs to drive in F1.
Red Bull junior Arvid Lindblad has the opportunity to make his F1 debut this season if he secures a minimum of eight FIA super licence points in the 2025 Formula Regional Oceania Championship, where he currently leads by five points after the first of five rounds.
Competing for Campos in F2 this year, Lindblad’s potential F1 entry in 2026 appears to be the most likely scenario, and his performance at the season finale on 9th February could secure his path to F1 with 40 super licence points.
With aspirations to move up to F1, Lindblad remains focused on his current races and performance, aiming to secure a race seat at Racing Bulls, despite the ongoing discussions about potential FP1 sessions in 2025.
Maintaining a calm and determined approach, Lindblad emphasized the importance of concentrating on his own progress and results in F2 and the Formula Regional Oceania Championship, as these will ultimately dictate the opportunities that come his way in the future.
