SOCHIRUSSIA

A small city in southern Russia, Sochi is a very lively town with a pedestrian-only sea embankment that is constantly crowded with people as well as restaurants, nightclubs, cafes and shopping.

Just south of Sochi is a smaller town, Adler. A town known for being the location of some of the 2014 Winter Olympic complexes, Formula 1® has built a beautiful circuit around these iconic buildings. The town of Alder may have a small geographic location, but the atmosphere is huge with exciting restaurants and clubs to visit during your stay. Royal Fish is a great restaurant with a view of the Black Sea while you dine on fresh seafood cuisine and beautiful cocktails from the Harbor Bar. For a pub feel visit O’Sullivan’s Pub for great burgers, brews and tons of fries to go with your meal and located just outside the Autodrom! If adventure seeking is your obsession, head north back towards Sochi and visit the Agura Waterfalls for a beautiful nature escape or stroll through the Olympic park in Alder to witness some of the breathtaking fountains built throughout the arena.

Attend the 2018 Russian Grand Prix at Sochi Autodrom with F1® Experiences, The Official Experience, Hospitality & Travel Programme of Formula 1®, with access including driver meet-and greets, Exclusive Pit Lane Walks and more!

STOFFEL VANDOORNEFor Stoffel Vandoorne, it became a question of ‘when’ rather than ‘if’ in his quest for racing in Formula One. That ‘when’ occurred after he was called up from his reserve role to deputize for the injured Fernando Alonso on the McLaren team at Bahrain in 2016.

Vandoorne began his motorsport career at six years old in 1998 and earned his first race and championship victories in national karting series. He went on to finish runner-u in the KF2 World Cup in 2009. During 2010, he went into the F4 Eurocup series scoring six victories as he wrapped up the title with two rounds in hand. He joined the McLaren Young Driver Program in 2013 after he became the vice-champion with four wins in the 3.5 series in 2013.

Stoffel joined the McLaren team as their Formula One reserve for 2014 and combined that with a maiden GP2 campaign with ART. He ultimately finished second to Jolyon Palmer after four victories and 10 podiums. In a continuous momentum, Vandoorne proved to be unstoppable in 2015 as he solidified seven wins, 16 podiums, four pole positions, and five fastest laps as he landed the series title in dominant fashion.

Vandoorne’s Formula One debut came in early 2016, when, deputizing for Fernando Alonso, he scored a point in his one-off Sakhir outing. He combined his reserve role with a season in Japan’s highly competitive Super Formula finishing fourth overall after two wins. His biggest prize of the year, however, was landing a full-time race drive with McLaren for 2017, stepping into the sizeable shoes of Jenson Button.

As an F1 rookie, he scored 13 points to Spanish teammate Alonso’s 17 in what was a tough final year of McLaren’s revived Honda partnership - and duly retained his drive alongside the two-time champion for 2018.
