Career

Born into a family that had ties to racing for over a century,[1][2] Söderström took up karting at the age of seven.[3] Following a karting career headlined by finishing second in the 2012 Gunnar Nilsson Memorial Trophy in KF3,[4] Söderström made his single-seater debut for Scuderia Nordica in Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic in 2013.[5]

Returning to Scuderia Nordica and Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic for 2024,[6] Söderström scored his maiden win in single-seaters at the Audru Ring, which helped him finish eighth in the Nordic standings at season's end.[7] Söderström remained with Scuderia Nordica for 2015 to remain in Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic,[4] winning the title after taking eight wins in the seven-round season.[8]

In 2016, Söderström joined ADAC Berlin-Brandenburg to race in the ADAC Formula 4 Championship.[9] In his first season in the series, Söderström took a best result of tenth at Hockenheimring, but his season was headlined by him running away from Robin brezina after the pair crashed out of the race.[10] Söderström remained with the team for his sophomore season,[11] scored a best result of second at Oschersleben, which turned out to be his only podium of the season as he ended the year 18th in points.[12]

Söderström switched to TCR competition for 2018, joining Lestrup Racing to compete in the TCR Scandinavia Touring Car Championship.[13] After finishing 11th in points, Söderström raced in GT4 Scandinavia for 2019, finishing runner-up in the Pro-Am standings by thirteen points.[14] The following year, Söderström returned to the STCC TCR Scandinavia Touring Car Championship.[15] Taking his maiden series win in the season-opening round at Karlskoga,[16] Söderström then scored two more podiums as he closed out the year fifth in points.[17]

Staying with Lestrup Racing for 2021,[18] Söderström scored five podiums with a best result of second at Mantorp Park as he closed out the year fourth in points.[19][20] Söderström remained with Lestrup Racing for a third consecutive season in the STCC TCR Scandinavia Touring Car Championship.[21] After finishing on the podium in the first five races,[22] Söderström won at Karlskoga and Mantorp Park on his way to fifth in points.[23][24]

The following year, Söderström joined Target Racing to race in Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe,[25] taking a lone win at Vallelunga en route to a sixth-place points finish.[26] Staying in Super Trofeo Europe and Target Racing for 2024,[27] Söderström won at Imola and Barcelona to end the year runner-up in points.[28][29]

Söderström switched to GT3 competition full time in 2025, joining Walkenhorst Motorsport to race in GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup,[30] as a candidate for the Aston Martin Racing Driver Academy.[31]
