Floersch confirms she's fine after F3 horror-crash
After her horror-crash during the final Formula 3 race of the season, Sophia Floersch has confirmed on her social media that she is okay, even though she will require surgery.
The 17-year-old Floersch went viral this morning on social media, and not for the right reasons. During the F3 race in Macau, the Van Amersfoort driver got spun around on a straight and catapulted off of another car into a wall at very high speeds. Fortunately, she's okay, and so are the marshalls that were hit by the debris. Floersch will require surgery because of a spinal fracture.
Mijn god, hier de crash vanaf de tribune gefilmd. Pas op, schokkende beelden! Nogmaals: het is Sophia Floersch die is gecrasht in de Formule 3-race van Macau. De Duitse rijdt voor het Nederlandse team Van Amersfoort Racing. Hopelijk komt er snel een update! #F3 pic.twitter.com/HesSwYimWf
