My name is Sofia, and I was born in Rome in 2007. I grew up immersed in the world of motorsport, following my father, Paolo, a touring and GT driver as well as a Ferrari coach, to racetracks around the world. From an early age, racing became a part of me. In 2011, when I was just 4 years old, I drove a kart for the first time. On my 5th birthday, I received my very own kart, previously owned by Andrea Kimi Antonelli, (F1 AMG Mercedes Petronas Team) a friend and talented driver who inspired me deeply.

My competitive journey began in 2013 when I participated in my first Kart Summer Camp. That experience marked the start of what would become a long and exciting career in racing. By 2016, I made my competitive debut in the Championkart series, and soon after, I began competing in prestigious events such as the ROK Cup and the IAME X30 Challenge, where I earned podiums and pole positions. These early successes helped me gain valuable experience and recognition in the karting world.

Over the following years, I continued to build on my achievements, competing in the Rotax Max Challenge and securing numerous podiums and victories across different categories. In 2020, I transitioned to the Junior Max category, testing my skills against some of the best young talents in the sport. Later, I moved to the Senior category, where I achieved significant results, including a second-place finish in Dubai and several podiums in the DD2 category.

Now, I’m preparing to take the next step in my career by transitioning to car racing. I am still competing in the DD2 category for the 2024-2025 season, which represents a crucial milestone in my journey toward becoming a professional racing driver.

In addition to this, I have been selected to participate in the FW Nations Cup 2024, a prestigious international event where I will race against 49 female drivers from around the world. This will be an incredible opportunity to challenge myself and further develop my skills while competing on the global stage.

I invite you to follow my journey and cheer me on as I take on new challenges and work toward my dreams. Thank you for your support and encouragement!
