My story
How it started
It all started when my dad took me to my first DTM race in 2013 at Circuit Park Zandvoort. That’s where I fell in love with motorsport. Afterward, we visited the track more often, also to watch my dad race.
​
In 2015, I got a PlayStation 4 along with the F1 2015 game, which I played a lot using a controller. This is where I became really interested in the dynamics of racing and finding the car's limits. Even with a controller, I learned techniques like trail braking and being gentle with the throttle.
In 2020, I got my first simulator for Christmas from my dad. I immediately started using it in the living room. Within a month, I began league racing with my friends on the F1 2021 game. We weren’t very good at it, but we had loads of fun together. In 2023, I transitioned to racing in Assetto Corsa Competizione with GT3 cars, where I learned about real racing concepts like overtaking maneuvers and pit stop strategies.
​
At the beginning of 2024, my dad bought back his old BMW Compact 318ti from a friend. In April of that year, my dad asked if I wanted to get my racing license. Of course, I said yes! Right from the start, I was quick. I applied all the experience I learned from sim racing to real life almost immediately.​ I raced for the first time on May 26, 2024, in the BMW Compact Cup. I finished in 2nd place overall after an intense battle for the lead.

How is it going
In 2024, I had an great season competing in the DNRT BMW Compact Cup, where I finished 4th in the championship. Missing the first round was a big challenge it put me 150 points behind the leader right from the start. Despite this, I worked hard, stayed focused, and fought my way back up the standings. It wasn’t just about the results; I learned so much about perseverance, improving my skills, and staying mentally strong.
​
Beyond the Compact Cup, I took part in endurance racing, which gave me even more valuable experience. One standout moment was driving a BMW M240i for the first time during an endurance race in May, thanks to MDM Motorsport. My pace in wet conditions was impressive, and we finished P5 out of 50 cars. Later in the year, I raced in a BMW Compact 325ti. While we didn’t face much competition in our class, it was a great opportunity to refine my car control, race awareness, and strategy. We finished P15 out of 45 cars overall in that event.
​
Looking ahead, 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year. My goal is to win in both the BMW Compact Cup and the BMW Racing Cup. With all the experience and lessons I’ve learned in 2024, I’m ready to push even harder, achieve better results, and continue building my career in motorsport.
The future
I want to go as far as I can in motorsport, concentrating on competing in the various levels of the sport – starting in a lower tier and competing in the Bmw Racing Cup and later tackle higher series like the Porsche Super Cup. I want to become a high-performance driver who will always seek to maximize performance and learn every time in each race I drive. In the course of achieving this, I will still expand my brand, expand my network, and get sponsors who understand my zeal and ambition in the motorsport sector.
