Aria Hevel (born 19th November 2001 in The Valley, Anguilla) is an Anguillian racing driver who is racing in Super Formula for MarchSixteen Racing with ThreeBond.

She has sponsorship from FLOW, a mobile phone carrier operating in the Caribbean.

2019 season

Driving for Total BR Autosports with the backing of Polaris Academy, Hevel performed well at the inaugural South American F4 weekend in Bahía Blanca. She secured pole position, plus P2 and P8 across the two races. To express her excitement about being a professional driver for the first time, she joined a somewhat famous internet community about racing.

Hevel complemented this strong start with a masterclass at Buenos Aires and two wins from pole at Goiânia and Cascavel. Her performances fizzled out by the end of the year, but this was enough to secure second place with 156 points, 22 behind champion Raquel Rodriguez.

However, her F4 success inadvertently brought shady sponsors to Total BR Autosports throughout the year, bankrupting the team by the season's conclusion.

2020 season

Hevel lost the backing of Polaris Academy coming into the 2020 season, prompting her to compete in more localised series. She placed fifth in the 2020 Radical Caribbean Cup.

2021 season

Hevel was picked up by Team Bert Anderwald's Treibergarten program, and was loaned to a fellow Austrian team, MarchSixteen Racing, for the foreseeable future. Driving for MarchSixteen in the 2021 Japanese F3 Championship, Hevel finished third in a field that was depleted from the rise of the FIA Formula 3 Asian Championship.

2022 season

Hevel was signed to MarchSixteen Racing with ThreeBond for the 2022 Super Formula season, racing alongside Tadasuke Makino. Hevel and Alberto Cara were the first Caribbean drivers in the series, with Hevel the first Anguillian.

2023 season

As part of her Treibergarten membership, Hevel served as the test driver for Team Bert Anderwald during the 2023 AutoReject World Series season.
