GÖPPINGEN, Germany – September 17, 2026 – TeamViewer has announced that Alexia Danielsson will officially represent the company as the Wild Card entry for Round 5 of the F1 ACADEMY™ season at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas.
The 17-year-old Swedish driver will make her debut with F1 ACADEMY in a special edition livery that highlights the role of communities in supporting women’s career progression – on and off the track.
TeamViewer’s Forward Together campaign highlights how being part of formal and informal communities helps women enter and advance in sports and tech roles. This is further reflected in TeamViewer’s Women in Sport Tech report, produced in collaboration with Loughborough University London, which indicated that 55% of women in tech say that being a part of a professional community was critical to their career progression.
The livery will celebrate this by including members from Austin Women in Tech, Girlstart, Women in Miami Tech and Driven by Us communities. In total the livery will feature 250 women on the car who have inspired others through mentorship, advocacy, knowledge sharing, career opportunities, and peer-to-peer support. They represent communities focused on leadership development, advancing women in technology, empowering the next generation in STEM, strengthening professional networks, and driving greater inclusion in motorsport and automotive industries.
Karin Fink, Head of Commercial Operations, F1 ACADEMY said: “Motorsports has always had a strong community behind it, and this is no different at F1 ACADEMY. The drivers are supported by so many around them, so it is nice to see some of those communities that inspire change for women, both on and off the track, featured on TeamViewer’s livery. By creating spaces where women not only belong but also have the opportunity to engage and share knowledge, we are able to empower more women to advance, no matter the industry.”
Faith Wheller, VP of Brand and Sports Partnerships, TeamViewer added: “Building on our campaign last year where we brought visibility to role models, this year we wanted to do something just as important to helping women advance. Forward Together highlights the need for communities and the role they play in our careers. The opportunity to support a young talent like Alexia in her F1 ACADEMY debut while also featuring many women who have supported the next generation in other industries is why this livery is so important. We look forward to being in Austin this October to support Alexia in person.”
