Overtaking is a mix of timing, courage, control and willingness to take risks. Reading situations early, putting pressure on the opponent and consistently exploiting small mistakes — this is one of my most distinctive strengths. Several races prove it clearly: In Barcelona I moved from P18 to P3, in the World Series Karting from P14 to P9 before a technical failure stopped the race, and at the Lausitzring I charged from P18 all the way to P1.

Cockpit heat, adrenaline and lateral G-forces in every corner push the body and mind to their limits. Concentration, reaction speed and resilience must all be at their peak from the start to the final lap. That is why fitness is no optional extra for me — it is a core part of performance and always maintained at the highest level.

Full focus, zero margin for error and only one opponent: the clock. Delivering under pressure when it matters most is something I have demonstrated at every level of my career, from the German Kart Championship to GT racing. It showed most clearly in Le Mans Prototypes: 2 pole positions in 4 races and an average qualifying result of P2.
