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 2025, 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. The event will be held at Dubai Autodrome the 3th-4th and 5th May 25.
In the 2025 season, I will also make my debut in my first car racing championship by competing in the RCN series, which takes place entirely on the old Nürburgring circuit. I will share my BMW 330i with my father, Paolo.
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!
