Don't miss out on the ultimate Monaco F3 race experience - premiere of the FIA F3

- Is there a Grand Prix with more flair and history than Monaco? For decades, the international jet set has made a pilgrimage to the exclusive event on the Côte d'Azur in southern France.
In 2023, the modern FIA F3 will celebrate its premiere here on the 3,337-metre street circuit. And what is the name of the city finishing straight? Boulevard Albert 1er.
18 bends with such great names as Mirabeau, the tunnel under the Fairmont Hotel, the chicanes along the harbour and Rascasse, the last combination of bends before the finishing straight. For insiders: Is the bend named after the finger food restaurant "La Rascasse" in the bend or the restaurant after the bend?
The big problem in Monaco: lack of space! The F2 paddock is in the car park at the harbour. The situation is even worse for the FIA F3. We were in the car park of the Country Club tennis complex at the eastern end of Monaco. About 3-4 km from the F1 paddock. Walking distance about 50 minutes. Catering in an underground car park.
The procedure was that we had to take a shuttle through the public but closed roads before and after a session with the F3. After the free practice, this manoeuvre cost me my engine. Traffic jammed in a roundabout, I had to stop, engine quickly over 120C and - off. An F3 is definitely not built for roundabouts.
Conclusion: The atmosphere, the flair of Monaco is what makes it. The parties, the yachts, the lifestyle. Monaco is Carp.... in its purest form. Anything under Bentley is practically non-existent here. RR is standard. For example, lunch at the Monaco Beach Club, on the way out there are simply three Bugattis in the valet parking. That's Monaco.
Of course, we also raced there. That's why we travelled to Monaco. I would like the F3 event in Monte Carlo to be more about sport. A race at 8 o'clock in the morning takes place in front of empty grandstands, while the nightlife goes on until 5 o'clock in the morning.
In the rain it went great, the whole session around the top 10. Due to the engine change before qualifying, I lost 200 to 300 revs when shifting up. That must have been almost a second. Our team tried different set-ups on all three cars in qualifying. In the end it didn't matter because my team was penalised by the FIA for breaking the rules by starting from the pit lane. Actually, we used the two races more to collect data to understand and develop the car.
Monaco offers almost no overtaking opportunities without a mistake by the car in front. Accordingly, the races were unspectacular. P23 in the sprint race. P23 in the feature race. Conclusion: The street circuit was really fun in the rain, it started out promisingly from a sporting point of view and then, unfortunately, everything turned out quite differently. Well then... Let's go to Barcelona for the big Alonso festival 😊 .
By the way: Fastest race lap F1: Lewis Hamilton 1:15,650 and my fastest race lap 1:27,469 in FIA F3 = 12 sec difference. The F2 went 1:22.058 = 5.5 sec faster than my F3.
380 hp vs. 1,000 hp or 612 hp doesn't make much difference in Monaco.
Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to show moving pictures of the track or the grid in the vlogs from the FOM. I am trying to find a solution in the sense of all F3 fans on social media. It would be a great win-win situation for everyone if you could show more scenes.
Have fun watching!

Me and my father where in Monaco as well and we have cheered for you. Good luck for the next races
Over the Years I have worked for a few F3 teams at Monaco.... It is a Freakin Nightmare logistically.... The pits are Miles away... We used to follow F1 Qualification.... And we had to que up before they started. As we had passes we were allowed in to watch... In those days we were allowed to stand on the Inside of the Hair Pin... So I was stood there looking inside Senna`s Cockpit while he was Qualifying...... Something that will stay in my memory till my dying day..... :-)) xxx
impressive
@@SophiaFloerschOfficial I worked in Motorsport for 27 years.... Many stories to be told.... :-))
Would love to see you in a more competitive team. You are clearly the top driver in the PHM team
MISS YOU AT LE MANS HOPE NEXT YEAR
All the best wishes for you, Sophia ❤️❤️❤️
Viel Erfolg für die nächsten Rennen 💕
Thanks for the video, good stuff. Joining all the others by wishing you good luck for future races!
I didn't enjoy Macau 2018. Happy to see you back racing.
I am very happy to see you in Monaco for your first race here!!!
Hey Sophia hope you're well
can you show us more about your race routines like what happen pre race as in your warm ups etc and then post race what you do, also can you have like a small segment where you introduce us to your team and engineers and everyone around you?
thanks and I hope you have a great season!!
put it on my agenda
I love you're video's ❤ and i wish you all the best in F3 and you're whole career Sophia
Ciao Sophia Thanks for the video you made 😘
Sophia du bist eine herausragende Persönlichkeit. Ein Vorbild für uns alle. Wie du dich nach deinem Unfall wieder zurückgekämpft hast ist beispiellos. Keiner wusste, kannst du wieder laufen, kannst du wieder alles normal machen, den Alltag selbst verrichten. Man hatte echt Angst um dich gehabt, aber du hast es geschafft nicht nur dein Alltag wieder normal zu verrichten, sondern alles wieder zu können und sich wieder auf das große Ziel zu konzentrieren. An dieser Stelle auch noch einmal ein riesen Lob an die Ärzte, die dieses Wunder möglich gemacht haben. Ich glaube du solltest bzw. bist den Ärzten für immer dankbar, dass Sie das große Wunder vollbracht haben oder? Nun aber wieder zurück zu dir Sophia. Du bist eine herausragende Persönlichkeit, weil du dich nicht unterkriegen lässt, weiter hart an deinem Ziel arbeitest, dir aber auch nicht den Mund verbieten lässt, von irgendwelchen Möchtegern Motorsportlern und trotzdem hast dueine bodenständige und bescheidene Art mit einem gewissen Grad an Verrücktheit inne. Das macht dich zu solch einer liebenswerten Person. Ich wünsche dir Sophia all das Glück und den Erfolg auf der Welt, sowohl im finanziellen (sehr viel Geld), im sportlichen als auch im gesundheitlichen, sowie privaten Bereich.☺️
Great videos, I wish you good luck. Would like to see more about your crew and/or about your race car.
Question: If not a driver, what other position on the team would you like to do?
Question: Do you get to choose your car number or what number would you like on your car?
Thanks, be safe. 👍😎💙🇺🇸
Thank you very much for your answers, Sofia!
Kannst du nochmal Videos auf deutsch machen? 🙏🙏🙏Das wäre echt super
Big respects. 🏁
Keep up the good work.
You are wonderfull racing driver ,I wish you all the best in your racing career xx..
Du bist große Klasse. 😊
Congrats surviving Monaco!
🦁 👏 who blew your engine? In my experience engines don't just blow. Oil? Cooling? Fasteners? Seals? Part failure? Run outside normal parameters - over-revved? Prob a secret. That's ok. Thx for the vid. Looking forward to catching some of your newest footage. 💛👊
I’d love to see more about the car if you can show us the engine etc more shots of the car as well these things are inaccessible for us and super interesting hope that makes sense! These videos are already great though if you added race footage it would be incredible I know you working on it! Already can’t wait for Spain ✌️
Cool helmet! 👍
Good luck! It surprised me to hear you've never raced in Monaco so far.
8 Uhr Race start ist wirklich bodenlos 💀
For me in F1 games Monaco has always been the trickiest race to do, partially due to that last corner you mentioned, it is a very slow corner and you don't really see much going into it so kind of have to wing it. Still decent result for the team considering it is one of the hardest tracks to overtake on
Intro: Hand movement like the Italians.. 😂
Cool, it seems like you are patient and comfortable to get back to Formula Racing👦👍🏎🏁🚩
which phone you are using? question from India.
I would appreciate some clips about driving and on board videos Good luck anyway for career!
I thought you had already done Monaco once or twice... This being your third time in F3. But that's not the case.
So how is Monaco in comparison to any other track you know - not taken in account if it's a street track or not ? Can you compare it at all (in your opinion) ?
Cool new helmet design. Liked the previous one as well.
Hi Sophia, great stuff!!
So tell me, how do you rate the Spa-Francorchamps circuit? I would have thought that would be one of your favourites as well.
Spa is really fascinating. A tough race track. I like it.
Hey Sophia do you name all your race cars road cars ? ❤
Why not Le Man this year????
Because I am Alpine Junior?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯💯💯💪🏻💪🏻🔥🔥🔥

...mrzí ma to, ale bojím sa napísať niečo viac. Pretože neviem či je dobrý prekladač...naši slavni politici si neuvedomujú, aké je to dôležité...s láskou 😢
and Bobby was his name
I think you meant helmet b-rol? But it is sexy indeed, especially in close-up when focused on your eyes
Lost 6kg in 3 months?! Holy smokes
Did she not race in 24hrs of lemans this year?
No, unfortunately not, but the Iron Dames team did really well without Sophia.
@@perekman3570 she doesn’t drive GTs she drives LMP2
@@indx552 She was not part of the Iron Dames project in the previous Le Mans entries, that's true.
...women in single-seaters...a beautiful sight, because without women we guys wouldn't be able to do anything either...I wish you a lot of love and always good tires...the best would be PIRELY 🏳️🌈♈️〽️
Can you put those "sexy pictures" on your socials?😅😂😂
… no overtaking , than there is no reason to race , so Monaco is a junk place ! ❤️👀
Tu dir und mir bitte einen Gefallen und synchronisiere nie wieder irgendwelche Filmfiguren. Immersion durch dein Gestammel im neuen Transformers-Film gleich 0. 🙄
