Sophia Floersch began her professional single-seater career in 2016 when she raced in the ADAC F4 championship. She soon made it up the Formula ladder, racing in the Italian F4, European F3, and FRECA before making it to the FIA F3 championship in 2020.

However, the F3 debut didn't go as well with Floersch finishing the season in P29 and moving to race in Endurance racing for the next couple of seasons. She returned to race in F3 for 2023 and 2024 and had a couple of subpar seasons finishing 23rd and 29th in the championship respectively.

Sophia Floersch decided to make the move to race in the American open-wheel racing series for the 2025 season and announced her HMD Motorsports drive for the Indy NXT season.
