{{Main|Ferrari Driver Academy}}
Ferrari's junior driver programme is the [[Ferrari Driver Academy]]. Begun in 2009, the initiative follows the team's successful grooming of [[Felipe Massa]] between 2003 and 2006. Drivers who are accepted into the Academy learn the rules and history of formula racing as they compete, with Ferrari's support, in feeder classes such as [[Formula Three]] and [[Formula 4]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Ferrari Driver Academy: the Mission |website=Ferrari |date=24 March 2020 |url=https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/fda/mission |access-date=19 July 2023 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Ferrari Driver Academy applications open for Asia Pacific selection program |website=Federation Internationale de l'Automobile |date=18 May 2023 |url=https://www.fia.com/news/ferrari-driver-academy-applications-open-asia-pacific-selection-program |access-date=19 July 2023 }}</ref><ref name=FDAF1>{{cite web |title=The Ferrari Driver Academy – F1's golden ticket to the top? |website=Formula 1 |date=24 January 2019 |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.the-ferrari-driver-academy-f1%27s-golden-ticket-to-the-top.5474CVH0xo2DA1e5sBGznc.html |access-date=19 July 2023 |archive-date=12 August 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230812212659/https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.the-ferrari-driver-academy-f1%27s-golden-ticket-to-the-top.5474CVH0xo2DA1e5sBGznc.html |url-status=live }}</ref> As of 2019, 5 out of 18 programme inductees had graduated and become F1 drivers: one of these drivers, [[Charles Leclerc]], came to race for Scuderia Ferrari, while the other four signed to other teams.
