Chloe Grace Moretz teases major sports career change as star closes out inaugural F1 Academy season

CHLOE Grace Moretz has headed for The Lone Star State to call time on the inaugural F1 Academy season.

The Hollywood superstar enjoyed the eight-lap race from the pit wall, sheltering from the blistering Texas sun.

Moretz then waved the checkered flag in Austin, bringing the final race of the year to a close.

Speaking after the flag was flown, she told The US Sun that it had been an "incredible" experience for her.

"Very happy to be there, especially this season."

2023 marks the first season of the all-female single-seater racing series.

"It's a revolutionary thing, the F1 Academy, and I'm proud to be here supporting it," Moretz added.

And when asked if this had inspired her to try her hand at the series, the 26-year-old didn't hesitate to throw her hat into the ring.

"For sure. I'm ready. Put me in," she said.

And Moretz could already have a sponsor lined up, having visited the Red Bull Racing garage earlier in the day.
