The Welsh racer joined the McLaren Driver Development programme at the end of 2024 and will be combining her British F4 campaign with F1 Academy, representing McLaren - following a solid debut as a Wild Card driver in Singapore, where she finished in the points in both races.
Ella is familiar with the team, having originally made her single seater debut with them in 2024 during a two-round cameo appearance in the Formula Winter Series - where she took female trophy classification wins in the championship.
