F3 driver Sophia Floersch and F1 ACADEMY’s Chloe Chambers have taken part in a Formula 2 and Formula 3 test respectively at Silverstone, with the aim to help define the set-up regulations of both cars in order to accommodate a wide range of drivers and make both championships as accessible as possible.
The two-day programme – which took place on July 12-13 – focused on a complete screening of all suspension set-up configurations used across the season in order to remain below the steering effort level defined by the FIA.

Throughout testing, both drivers were able to try a wide range of set-ups on different tyre compounds, thus working on braking, steering effort, positioning of the steering wheel, and overall on ergonomics of the cars.
The data collected and feedback from the drivers will help define the set-up limitations for the F2 and F3 teams in 2025.
Across the two days, Floersch completed a total of 96 laps at the wheel of the F2 2024. Chambers amassed 97 laps in a hybrid F3 2019, with modified parts to simulate the behaviour and demands of the F3 2025 car.
