Lloyd, 19 years old from Wales, began racing competitively in 2022 in the Ginetta Junior Championship, finishing in the points at 15 of the 25 races that season. The following year, she competed in the Ginetta GT Championship, earning the vice-champion title in a competitive field.

At the beginning of 2024, Ella competed in the Formula Winter Series, taking the Female Driver Trophy multiple times. She competed in British F4, completing the 2024 season with three P2 results, one P3 and multiple points finishes. The Welsh racer also took part in the Singapore F1 Academy weekend as the Wild Card driver, finishing in the points in both races.

Her involvement in the McLaren Driver Development programme, led by Stephanie Carlin, will see her join the team’s talent pipeline, which has an overarching aim to help drivers progress towards Formula 1, IndyCar and Formula E.

As part of her role in the programme, Lloyd will compete in Formula E’s first-ever Women’s Test - also a first in FIA World Championship motorsport - for the NEOM McLaren Formula E Team on Thursday, 7 November, 2024, in Valencia, Spain. As part of Official Pre-Season Testing in preparation for the 2024/25 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, this test aims to spearhead racing talent by providing an opportunity to gain experience in the new GEN3 Evo car.

“I’m really excited to be joining the McLaren Driver Development programme as the team’s F1 Academy driver in 2025," says Lloyd. "It’s an honour to drive for a team that has such a great racing history, and also a long track record for developing talent.

"With McLaren, I now have everything I need to keep developing and pushing the boundaries as a female in motorsport. Thank you to Zak Brown, Stephanie Carlin and the entire McLaren team for their faith in me. I can’t wait to get racing in papaya.”

In line with the F1 Academy regulations limiting drivers to a maximum of two years in the series, Ella will also step up to represent McLaren in the 2025 F1 Academy season, racing with Rodin Motorsport.
