SOPHIA FLOERSCH Preps for WEC Return After Abrupt IndyCar Exit

August 1, 2025

• SOPHIA FLOERSCH is putting in serious gym work as she prepares for her World Endurance Championship return with Algarve Pro Racing. The 24-year-old German driver has been sharing her training sessions on social media, including a recent ‘friyay’ workout while attending the Hungarian Grand Prix, showing she’s staying race-ready despite her tumultuous season.
• After an abrupt exit from IndyCar’s feeder series following just one race with HMD Motorsports at St. Petersburg, FLOERSCH made the strategic move back to European endurance racing. Her departure from the IndyCar pathway may have raised eyebrows, but she’s landed with the Portuguese outfit where she can focus on prototype racing without the politics that sometimes plague single-seater series.
• The former Alpine F1 academy driver recently completed intensive training at Imola, sharing behind-the-scenes content that included track testing, fitness work, and her preparation routine. With the iconic Le Mans already behind her this season, FLOERSCH is eyeing the Lone Star Le Mans in the US as her chance to make a strong statement in the WEC championship’s final stretch.
